Early 2011 MacBook Pro windows 10

Do you know of a place to download these updated 5.1 drivers? I used 5.1 drivers on my early 2011 MBP and I'm still not able to use any of the function keys (volume up/down, brightness, etc). I wonder if I should give Bootcamp Assistant a try again.

i have installed windows 10 from windows 7 and windows 8.1 on macbook pro early 2011. I reinstalled bootcamp driver downloaded with bootcamp utility from el capitain and all works ok also bluetooth and special key like brightness volume etc.

Is there any chance someone could share Bootcamp support software with us via google drive or something? My USB slots are broken 😟

If you could please copy the software to google drive or something and shoot me an email, its just my username @gmail. Really need these drivers and my USB slots are broken.

Any chance you could share your downloaded bootcamp utility software with me please? My usb slots are broken, need to find another way to access it. Been hunting online, but found squat so far.

Just kidding guys sorry for the slight spam. I found Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5621 it says it will only work for windows 8 but it works quite well on windows 10! All brightness and volume keys etc. working so far. Thanks hope this helps the next guy! I run late 2011 macbook pro.

UPDATE:

MacBook Pro early 2011, running OS X El Capitan and Window 10 with BootCamp 5.1 (or the latest version 5);

ALL drivers ARE working very well !!! Including the Bluetooth that was detected earlier as unsupported by Windows 10 scan.

Happy man.. ;D

So has anyone actually tried to use the most up to date bootcamp 6 drivers? If 5.1 are working for both windows 8.1 and 10, I can't imagine why the 6 wouldnt.

The BC6 drivers are meant for 2012 and later Mac models due to hardware differences.

Dude I did it once then I downgraded once I found out that my drivers were compatible with that edition I decided to give it a go. In almost a month on my birthday I decided to restart the pc to windows 10. The screen booted black and it stayed like that no key combos worked and i'm still currently working on getting my pc fixed. If you are planning on upgrading your pc to windows 10 through bootcamp and you have a early 2011. I'd advise you stay away until its supported.

Hi there:

Was anyone able to do a fresh install of Windows 10 with an ISO of it on bootcamp? I can't get Bootcamp to recognize it. I'm trying to upgrade from a 32-bit OEM version of Windows 7 that I've been using with VMware so I'm not sure if the Key will even let me do it but supposedly OEM user get the upgrade too.

Thank you!

Actually I took it to the repair shop and I found out that my issue wasn't a software issue but hardware. It was the motherboard not windows 10 phew. So I suppose I take back everything I just said previously. And yes it can be installed you have to go to bootcamp assistant, take out a flash drive or external hard drive and move the drivers there. Then when you have done upgraded to windows 10 you can take the drivers you have downloaded previously and click on the bootcamp installer to install them all at once. Or if you can't do that you have to install the drivers one by one. Also, you have to take into risk that Windows 10 still has bugs and early 2011 pc's aren't supported yet. If you do upgrade, you do so at your own risk. As for me I've been using Windows 10 for awhile and I haven't found any serious issues with it.

I did the following: unzipped the latest Boot Camp setup file and installed the drivers one-by-one manually. After that everything works perfectly.

You may also want to post the Product Version line from bootcamp.xml to let other known which BC driver package you used.

It was BC 5.1.5621. It may not be the latest version, but just before decision to format C and reinstall Win 7 i tried this. Luckily it helped.

I installed only some drivers that i knew by name and seemed logical. Unfortunately don't remember any more.
