boot camp installation hangs at realtek audio stepSearch or ask a question

I am trying to install boot camp for win 7 home prem 64 bits on Mac Pro laptop. The boot camp installer is hanging at the Realtek audio step. I tried other versions of boot camp, version 4.0.4326 and it complained that it did not support this system. I tried version 5.0.5033 and it complained that it did not support 64 bit. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same issue with Windows 10. Anyone found a fix for this? I tried going into the Bootcamp installer folder and install Realtek drivers manually which succeeded, but when I launch the Bootcamp installer again, it still gets stuck when installing Realtek drivers.

This was absolutely the best solution that I could clearly understand. One obviously would have to have failed at least once and then started fresh. I was using a complete version of Win10 downloaded from Microsoft onto a USB stick. The main trick is knowing to bail when the Boot Camp menu opens, finding your USB drive and then following the instructions of Sfjtfnfxgnxfg Dec 3, 2015. Once up and running, I had some startup difficulties and had to do a Windows restore, but after that, I am now up and running.


Thanks to all who have contributed to this.
