Hi,

 

Does anyone have any Bootcamp drivers for Windows 7 please? We have some iMacs without OSX and with just Windows. I cant find hte OSX disc for them.

 

Thanks

I believe you can download them from Apples website. A quick Google search threw up this - Download BootCamp Drivers for Macs to run Windows 7 or 8 | Chris F Carroll

when I ran bootcamp it automatically downloaded the drivers for the specific hardware and burned a disk for it.

They are upgrade packages only

We are not running OS X (see original post )

It doesn't take long to re-image it for OSX

Hold ALT and it re-images it from the interweb. You don't need the disk.

Sorry, no idea. I've only been using macs for the last year.

Ok thanks, does anyone else have the drivers please?

Only Mac's from 2010 onwards have the Internet Recovery feature.

If your iMac's are from 2006, your model ID will probably be iMac5,1 so you will need these drivers.

I don't think so - the links on my website that JonThompson quotes are not update packages, they are the drivers (or as Apple calls them, "Windows Support Software") that you need.

However, for opening the downloaded pkg file a machine with no OS X, you do also need the instructions on Opening a BootCamp driver download or other pkg or dmg file on Windows 7 or 8 with 7-Zip | Chris F Carroll

Hi,

The link you have posted are for specfic devices, none of them are the correct one. Ideally i just need the snow leopard bootcamp drivers as these work.

 

Thanks

Source yourself a replacement disc?

More to the point, why have iMacs running just Windows? :-S

Which iMac's do you have exactly - 17"/20"/24" 1.83GHz/2.0GHz/2.16GHz/2.33GHz?

Got the drivers, thanks anyway
