Q: Where can I find the bootcamp support software for Macbook Pro Retina mid 2014 15.4 2.5ghz?
I installed a trial version of Windows 7 to update to windows 8.1 Pro (because I did not have the ISO for 8.1, only the update from WIN 7 .exe file). During the update, the bootcamp drivers got erased from the machine. I have bootcamped many times before but this time, I could not find the support software on Apple's Website. I could find the other one: 5.1.5640, etc. But those do not support the 2014 15.4 models. Where can I find the download links for this because I do not want to install Windows again... Thanks in advance
What I found:
How to install Windows using Boot Camp - Apple Support
System requirements to install Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support
And a couple other bootcamp support download links.
I will be trying the 5.1.5640 version because it supports the 2013 models and may be used for the 2014/15 as well.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), 15.4" i7 2.5ghz 16GB Ram 500 GB SSD

From the link you have System requirements to install Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support,
- BCA: Use Boot Camp Assistant (BCA) to download the latest Boot Camp software. The support software available from Boot Camp Assistant is newer than what is currently available as a manual download.

| MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) | BCA | BCA | - | - | - | - |
You need to use a USB2 flash drive, and download the appropriate drivers using Bootcamp Assistant.
