Hi, I have installed windows 7 in my late 2013 imac, and everything looks perfect, and I installed a MMORPG (Cabal 2), the problems begins when I click in the star button, it shows me an error message that say something about a "vga graphics adapter". so if someone know how to fix this problem.
thanks.
have a nice day.
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
Please post the screen shot of the error message, if possible.
This is a bit strange. The iMac has Intel or nVidia (iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013) - Technical Specifications or iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) - Technical Specifications ) but a Standard VGA implies that you do not have the GPU drivers correctly installed. Can you post a screen shot of Device Manager -> Display Adapter tree expanded? What is the current driver version installed? What is the exact GPU model you have in your Mac?
The model is the iMac 21.5-inch, late 2013 with intel iris pro. and with the driver version do you mean the version of the boot camp?, if so, i used the BootCamp5.1.5640
You are missing the GPU driver.
You have the correct BC5 driver package according to Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5640

1. Can you If you don't see some features of your Mac in Windows - Apple Support and Repair your BC drivers?
2. Is/was Windows installed using EFI Boot?
1. I think i can do that. but do I download the latest version or do I download the windows 7 version?
2. I have no idea what do you mean with EFI boot.
If you already have the 5.1.5640 W7 version, your do not need to download it again. Try the Repair drivers first and check Device Manager and verify that you see the Intel GPU.
EFI Boot can run into issues, but we can leave it for the time being.
hi, I have repaired the drivers, but still the intel GPU isn't there.
Check on the Intel Website for newer drivers. Be careful before you apply them. Create a Windows System Restore point, before you update the drivers.
Also, run msinfo32 and check the installation mode of Windows. Here is an example on W8.1/Bootcamp on a 2012 MBP.
i guess that the drivers that you are talking about are the new intel iris pro drivers? or should i look for other drivers too?
I just installed the Intel iris pro drivers and it works, so thank you very much for helping me.
Excellent. Please backup Windows and create a System Restore point. I would also recommend screening all Drivers updates that Windows Update applies. I usually use Notifications and Download only, but not Automatic Updates.
Windows 7, vga graphics adapter problem.
