Windows 10 Bootcamp Problems 13" MBP Early 2015

I have a 13" Mac Book Pro Retina Early 2015. For 2 weeks I have tried getting Windows 10 Enterprise to install correctly.

When installing Boot Camp it always hangs on Status: Realtek Audio. It never finishes, so it doesn't complete installing the Touch Pad driver and a lot of other drivers such as video. I have taken pictures.

I tried repartitioning my device back to 1 partition. Reimaging my MBP system with Yosemite using the recovery partition. Then using Boot camp again. Same results. Then reset again and upgraded to El Capitan and doing Boot Camp with Windows 10 Enterprise. Same results.

I have tried rebooting it and manually running the Bootcamp MSI manuaully and get the same results. Does anyone know where a driver package is located? I have tried running the individual executables under BootCamp\Drivers\Apple such as ApleMultiTouchTrackPadInstaller64.exe. It says it installs but I still do not have the ability to right click.

Very disappointed they took away the ability to run Windows 7 on this device since that is still my company's standard. Thought I could work around it by going to Windows 10, but not having any luck on this device.

Need some assistance. Starting to regret my purchase.

Thanks,

Jody

Please see Re: boot camp installation hangs at realtek audio stepSearch or ask a question for a possible solution.

Windows Enterprise is not officially supported. Please see Solution for Bootcamp 6 error on Windows 10 for a possible Bootcamp.MSI workaround.

W7 is old. You can run W7 on 2014 Macs. 2015 Macs only support EFI, so W7, which is very buggy with EFI, is no longer supported. If you are within a return period, consider getting a Refurbished 2014 model.
