I am having issues with my Window 7 on boot camp. My hardware is Macbook Pro Mid 2010 model and working on OS X 10.9.5. Recently I went to windows 7 to do a system upgrade but failed and was told to update the bootcamp drivers. I installed boot camp5 but seem to be the wrong version and change to boot camp 4 which was updated okay. However I still cannot do the updates. Can someone advice me please? Thank you!

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

Please see Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support for the appropriate version of drivers related to the specific version of Windows 7.

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010)	-	4	4	DVD	DVD	DVD
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)	5	5	4	DVD	DVD	DVD

Be careful with Windows Updates, especially driver updates. Standard WHQL drivers can cause problems.
