You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

Macs that work with 64-bit editions of Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows 7


  1. Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
  2. After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc. The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard.

The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.

To install the Boot Camp drivers:

  1. 1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
  2. 2 Insert the Mac OS X disc. If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
  3. 3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows
    Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.

User uploaded file If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.

Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.

  1. 4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
  2. 5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
  3. 6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.

  4. If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers

If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.

To repair Boot Camp drivers:

  1. 1 Start up your computer in Windows.
  2. 2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
  3. 3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
  4. 4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows
    Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.

If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.

Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

In your original post you said you used Boot Camp. The drivers are downloaded during the Boot Camp process. I believe it is one of the first options for you to select from the initial menu.


Start Boot Camp Assistant again and select the option to download the Windows 7 drivers. Then from within Windows 7 install those drivers you downloaded.


Read the Boot Camp Installation Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf
