Q: Windows 10 Bootcamp on Mac Pro
Has anyone been able to upgrade to Windows 10 on a Mac Pro? I have tried both the Media Creation Tool and a direct download of the ISO. However, every time I try to install the update, I get the following error message: Something Happened. We can't tell if your PC has enough space to continue installing Windows 10.
I have unplugged all peripherals both USB and Thunderbolt, but I still get the error every time. I have seen users that have upgraded their MacBooks. But I haven't seen anyone successfully get a Mac Pro running Windows 10 in Bootcamp. After much research yesterday, I saw suggestions that it may be because of the SSD drive. My Bootcamp partition is 80GB with 38GB free. So I think I should have plenty of room. The other suggestion I saw was that it may be an issue with the bootloader. Windows users with a Linux partition were having the same problem. They fixed it by restoring the default Windows bootloader, but I think that's a terrible idea on my Mac Pro.
Any and all suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated.
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
