Windows 10 Bootcamp Driver Problem

Hello, I just installed Windows 10 by creating a partition with disk utility and then using a USB stick to install windows 10 so I haven't used boot camp to create the partition or to install windows.. Everything seemed fine until windows started, meaning the mouse & keyboard didn't work, I downloaded the drivers from bootcamp and installed them on the windows partition but still nothing is working.

I updated OSX Lion to El Capitan to get bootcamp 6 and get the windows 10 drivers but still, nothing is working. Something I've noticed is that on the windows partition when I click on the info for bootcamp it says Version 5.1 but I'm sure I've downloaded the drivers from Bootcamp 6.

After I downloaded the bootcamp 6 drivers I downgraded back to Lion because El Capitan was too problematic, so I can't even download the drivers again, is there a way to download them directly? Iv'e seen a way with Brigadier on some posts but I don't understand how it works.

Do the drivers from bootcamp work even if I didn't use bootcamp to install windows or create the partition with it?

Please help me!

I have an iMac 21,5" late 2012

I am having a problem installing bootcamp altogether. Realtek audio is taking forever to install. The keyboard does not function the way it did in windows 7. I cannot control the volume from the keyboard. The trackpad does not allow for 2 finger operation. Last night I installed software from the download. I installed bluetooth, keyboard and trackpad. Bluetooth seems to acknowledge the two, but does not allow me to change the seetings, because that is done in boot camp if im not mistaken. I had an other device with that yellow triangle, but now its gone.
