No sound after installing Windows 10 on Boot Camp

Did you select EFI Boot?

Im right now on this same situation. Yes, i've installed using alt and then EFI Boot, so that's the fault. But i did it this way because when i make the usb installation of bootcamp with BCA, whe it reboots automatically just after finishing it boots then "no bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key", im stuck right now, i think i'll need a disk or install Windows 7 then update to Windows 10

What year/model is your Mac?

MacBookPro8,1 Late 2011 i think. Was reading more about you, and got to the conclusion that the no sound problem is made because bootcamp makes an hybrid MBR so installing with EFI mode makes the sound card to don't be added to the device list or something like that, (and i installed using Alt then EFI Boot) im right now going for an alternate way, im going to install Win10 with this tutorial i found http://www.andrewsavory.com/blog/2011/2156 , my superdrive is broken, so i can only install with USB, but BCA detects my model has superdrive so sets the NVRAM to boot that way, so i get a "no bootable device" error.

So right now im going to install the first part of the setup, till the first reboot as an emulated BIOS Legacy through VMWare Fusion 8, im right now downloading VMWare fusion 3 because i need to mount the bootcamp partition .vmdk raw i saved with the tutorial (and vmware 4 and above doesn't have VMDKMounter.app, so i can't select the raw of the bootcamp partition under the "Select an existing virtual disk" tab, it shows greyed)

you better read the 2nd response to this thread https://communities.vmware.com/thread/461898 to understand why.

After that im going to continue with the tutorial on vmware and finishing installation booting Bootcamp through rEFInd and getting Windows10 installed without even a USB.

What is the issue with your built-in Optical drive?

Just broke, a bad CD (had a little breach, noticed after looking inside and seeing the CD and tiny pieces) exploded when reading, so the superdrive got unusable.

for anyone reading this looking for a solution

Right now im on Windows 10 without any sound, keyboard or mouse problem, the final and best way is to only use bootcamp to partition your hard drive (you need to mod bootcamp with this Enable Bootcamp to install from usb for OSX 10.9**WORKS**) so you can partition your hard drive without superdrive, you just unselect download and create usb media and you can now partition your drive, you need to do it with bootcamp (because sound and etc problems are because the installation was EFI Mode or without Hybrid MBR) then do this tutorial and all fine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG1gdImjy8k works on El Capitan too so dont worry.

I hope this last info can help ppl with the same problems. Because this was the best install i ever did. Clean, and without needing superdrive/usb nor sound/keyboard/mouse problems

I suggest removing the internal Superdrive, removing the top cover of the Optical drive and removing the shards. You do not want to leave this in the current state. I can lead to other issues, primarily heat buildup.

Thanks for worrying about but right now there's no problem actually the SuperDrive isnt installed on the MacBook.

Hi LonerT,

I appear to be having this issue, and can't get around it.

I'm on an 2014 iMac 5k, with a 1TB/500GB Fusion drive. I partitioned the disk into a 150GB partition for Windows using BootCamp, and let BootCamp do its thing as far as booting and starting the installation. I didn't boot from the boot picker or anything.

Windows 10 installed ok, but I'm getting hung on the Realtek audio installer. According to system info, the BIOS mode is UEFI.

Any workarounds that you know of?

Please see Bootcamp 6.0 driver install interrupted .

I'l give that a try, thanks.

that did the trick, thanks.

Thank you !!!

Hi Eduardo, everyone, thanks first for this feed.

Did it work? If yes, did this help you anyhow?

Thanks
