BootCamp

Ok so I have installed windows 10 onto my MacBook Pro (13" early 2011), yes I know it is unsupported. It works perfectly!!!
I installed the BootCamp Drivers from BootCamp5.1.5621 and that sorted out any initial problems I had after installing windows 10.

Now I would like to install the newer drivers from BootCamp5.1.5640 and/or BootCamp5.1.5769 But when I try to run the setup for these drivers I get

"This version of Boot Camp is not intended for this computer model"

I have tried using CMD administrator and opening that way but I get

"The system cannot find the path specified"

I have double and triple checked the path and its correct so I am confused as to why I can't get them to run.

On top of all of this I have been trying to run PUBG via stream and when I try to open it I get

"DX11 feature level 10.0 is required to run the engine"

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

I am currently running windows 10 on my:

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011)

macOS Sierra 10.12.6

Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB

BootCamp5.1

I fully understand that Macs are the greatest to run games and that my old *** macbook pro is even worse. Some people will be shacking their heads in disbelief that I am even trying.
I also understand that my mac doesn't meet the required minimum stats to run PUBG and that my windows 10 is not supported on my old *** mac.

All that aside I still want to try and install the newer/est drivers via bootcamp and find some way to get PUBG running (I don't care if the fps are running incredibly slow)

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

ps. telling me to buy a new mac or pc isn't helpful.

Thank you

MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12.6)

Neither of these support your Mac. What do you consider 'newer' drivers?

The only updates you can apply are from using Apple Software Update or Windows Update. Be careful with such updates, which can give you uncertified drivers or cause other issues.

Thanks I have already downloaded the drivers that are compatible with my mac and installed them that's how I got to the point I am at with PUBG. When starting the game I get this message:

"DX11 feature level 10.0 is required to run the engine"

From this point on i'm stuck, not really sure what approach to take to move forward in order for the game to run.
