Windows bootcamp via Rufus

I am trying to get Windows on external drive with Rufus i went on my external Windows with a flash drive with Windows 10 iso and Windows support. The only drive that showed on Rufus was the flash drive i had another drive Ex fat Guid. I closed Windows and took the drive that i wanted to put Windows on and the USB Flash drive out of the computer.Booted back to Mac then booted back to Windows and it said there was an errer it would not start i have a second drive with Windows on it and said the same thing?

I am using the drives in a CalDigit Thunderbolt3 dock.It seems a bit odd for both the drives to have the same problem.the reason i am trying to get it on an external drive is two problems 1.it says no host Driver for Bluetooth the only thing that is not working as it should is the Trackpad.The main thing is no sound from the internal speakers but it shows the green sound-bar is working in them.I don,t understand why

all the drivers arn,t working as i have the latest bootcamp windows support? https://youtu.be/g77iw6hl2GU?t=3

I have plugged the Windows drive direst into the computer well one of them not the thunderbolt one. iI booted into Windows tried Rufus again and still said there was only the USB Flash drive in the devices all though i see that the drive i want to put Windows is showing on the drives in Windows and the light is showing it is working on CalDigit Thunderbolt3 dock.I see that he mentions in the video that not all drives work for it in Rufus .I am not sure what he means ,does it mean like mine that it does not show as a device in Rufus?Or that he goes through the process and does not work at all?Would it work with a thunderbolt drive?

So I now realise Is there anyway I can sort out the Bluetooth problem?it is the only thing with a yellow sign on it.On the sound the only device that shows is the Thunderbolt Dock.And what about the mic?Ihave not tried the camera.I will try the drive on my Mac mini and see if there are any problems there. I know you can't use it on different modals but I will see what the basics are.

The mouse and keyboard are workings see that you can get drivers for the track pad but only arable for the Mac Book. 2017 5k .3.5 How do I go about house missing drivers?So it is all down to the audio drivers to get the Mic to work.Can you give me a link for those drivers?I tried it on the Mini but said no bootable drive.Itried it from it from the iMac I pressed it but nothing happened.I have also put Windows on a T5 but all the same problems. The drivers you are talking about should be in the Windows sport folder they are the two I mentioned the Apple Audio. and the Apple one with the number on it.

2017 5k 3.5.I looked at a old post on here and the person had the same problem as me no sound on the internal speakers.You told him to get an earlier Win 10 Iso i got one from Pirate bay needless to say i had the same problems as before.But the windows looks better than the latest one.I was wondering if i upgraded to Catalina would i still get the same drivers as on Mojave ?Windows Support Software?i suppose they would be the same.It is just an idea.

I wish i could get it to work with VNWARE Fusion.The seems no answer to Bluetooth USB Host controller i have looked all over the Camera works anyway.

. I don,t have a T2 chip computer.I worked it out with Rufus i managed to bring up the drive by pressing ALT and F, Rufus app was different to mine but that isn.t surprising as the video is four years old.It took 90 minutes to do i checked for errors ,it did not find any so far so good.But when i finally got it on there the same things were wrong with it.High def speakers and headphone audio showing they were working with the green bar.

PnP not working.

No USB Bluetooth Host controller,

Tested Mic it said highest 0 percent?AMD not plugged in?

Speakers high def. no jack info?

No light on keyword what writing in capitol letters?

Track pad not working as it should. Basically all the problems i had before

.I downloaded the AMD drivers unlike before where it said there was an errer.

I am very disappointed after all the time it took to do it.

Apple audio do i check one of these?

Apple 18031053 ? And the drive is called CCCOMA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9. not Windows?

Any ideas on this Mr T?

Do you have a BT driver installed? What is the year/model of your Mac?

On the sound the only device that shows is the Thunderbolt Dock.

You are missing Audio drivers. Normally, you should have Cirrus or RealTek drivers for internal Audio.

And what about the mic?

The Built-In Microphone relies on the Audio drivers.

Ihave not tried the camera.

Camera should work, but drivers, again.

I will try the drive on my Mac mini and see if there are any problems there. I know you can't use it on different modals but I will see what the basics are.

OK!

I see that other people have the same problem as me No sound on an i-Mac runing Windows 10 cirrus logic sound chip

I am trying to help my old friend get the sound to work on his i-Mac. He installed Windows 10 on his i-Mac using bootcamp as instructed by Apple. The sound is fine when in Apple mode, but when booted up in Windows 10, all seems to be fine except that there is no sound from the internal speakers. The i-Mac uses a cirrus sound chip, we can't find a Windows driver for it anywhere on line. Windows says that the sound is working correctly, but still no sound! We have tried all the usual checks, but still no sound. We are running out of ideas of what to do next or where to turn for help. Can you help us?The guy did not find an answer.
