When I try to download the Windows Support Software in Boot Camp ,,It loades about a 1/3 and then stops and gives a Pop up message stating Can't download because of a Network Problem
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), Parallels 7 installed
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Sometimes, Boot Camp Assistant doesn't download the drivers correctly.
As you have a Mid 2012 MacBook Pro, I suppose you are going to install a 64-bit Windows 7 or 8 version, so download the drivers from the Apple site and follow the steps of the website > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638

Thanks I have tried that a few times but when I open the file it reverts to my Paralles ,,, do I just leave it Lie ,,,how do I get to the Boot Camp partition ?
What file are you referring to? Note that you have to run the Windows support software in Windows.
If you have already installed Windows in Boot Camp, copy the Windows support software you have downloaded to a USB drive following the steps of the link of my first reply. Then, start up in Windows and install it.
If you are running Windows in Parallels only, you don't need the Windows support software. Instead, install the Parallels Tools offered with the application
Ok Thanks ,,, will try that ,,, I just know enough to be Dangerous LOL
Good luck
If I just put the windows disk in will it go to the Boot Camp Assistant ?
You have to open Boot Camp Assistant (in /Applications/Utilities). You have all the steps to install Windows in Boot Camp in the second link of my first comment
Download Interruption
