Sep 14, 2012 7:09 AM in response to aleja00by Csound1,The drivers you need are on the 10.6.8 installation disc (the one that came with your Mac)
Unless you are installing Windows XP your partition is too small, try 50G.

Sep 14, 2012 2:29 PM in response to aleja00by mixanity,About the drivers. First, right, enlarge the partition. Then try installing Windows from a DVD.
Then what you have to do is open Boot Camp assistant once again, there you'll find "Download Windows drivers". Windows won't work properly if you don't do this operation. Basically, that's it. I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate like that.

As has been pointed out to you several times already, the drivers are on your Snow Leopard installation disc, I don't understand why you persist in ignoring this advice and will no longer repeat it to you. Use the drivers you have

Sep 16, 2012 10:36 AM in response to aleja00by dalstott,Here is a link to the Apple instructions for 10.6 Boot Camp installation which if you read and carefully follow will allow you to accomplish what you wish. Especially note the parts that refer to the 10.6 installation disk and the Windows disk. If you deviate you will be lost again.
