BootCamp fails to start after upgrade to MacOS Sierra 10.12.1

After upgrading my MacBook (Retina 12-Inch, Early 2015) to the newest version of MacOS Sierra 10.12.1, my Windows 10 Bootcamp won't boot and throws off an ACPI.SYS error. Since the keyboard and mouse does not work in Recovery Mode, I plugged in a keyboard. I did a "Reset Files" and nothing. Before I wipe out my BootCamp partition and start over I wonder if anyone else encountered this problem after updating from MacOS Sierra 10.12.0...

MacBook, macOS Sierra (10.12.1), Macbook 12-inch (Early 2015)

Dear jspegs,


You did a great job, you've test the 10.12.2 beta that let us know the first beta still not fix the Boot Camp bugs. You save me time because I've registered as beta tester but didn't have time to test this beta patch.

Do you mind keep testing the next couple beta patches and update us the results?


Appreciate on your great help.

Wow, this worked for me on my 2015 macbook, thanks. I had to reboot lots of times using an externally connected USB keyboard to be able to choose safe mode in Windows 10. I could not disable the device directly in safe mode, but instead uninstalled the driver, rebooted normally into Windows 10, and from there disabled the device completely.


Apple needs to address this ASAP.

Run Apple Software Update on the Windows side to check.

Stay with El Capitan, otherwise you will end up this problem on a second Mac.

unfortunately Windows 10 doesn't allow to enter "safe mode" and it just keeps rebooting.


the faulty driver is the Bluetooth one.


If you finally go for a new Windows installation, when you install the bootcamp drivers, you will experience the same issue, so the workaround is to delete the following folders under the WindowsSupport folder and run the installer again:

\WindowsSupport\AppleBluetoothBroadcom64

\WindowsSupport\BootCamp\Drivers\Broadcom


it worked for me after on a new Windows installation. of course the Bluetooth doesn't work.
