Upgrading
These sections describe how to upgrade Windows or your version of Boot Camp.
Upgrading the Boot Camp Drivers
If you’ve already installed Windows on this computer, you can install the updated
Mac drivers for Windows.
Important: If you’ve customized your Windows environment, write down your settings
before updating the drivers.
To update the Boot Camp drivers for Windows:
1 Restart your Mac using Windows.
2 Click the Boot Camp icon in the system tray and choose About Boot Camp.
3 If the version is 3.0 or later, use Apple Software Update to check for updated drivers.
4 If the version is earlier than 3.0, insert your Mac OS X version 10.6 installation disc.
When the installer starts, click Repair.
If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorer and
double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
Upgrading to Windows Vista or Windows 7
You can upgrade Windows XP to Windows Vista or Windows Vista to Windows 7.
Note: If you’re using Windows XP, you cannot upgrade to Windows 7. You can perform
a clean install (also called a custom install), which erases your Boot Camp partition.
Before you perform a clean install, make sure you have the installation discs for all your
programs and a backup of your personal files and settings. You can restore them after
the installation.
To upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7
To upgrade to Windows 7, you need:
 Windows Vista installed on your Boot Camp partition
 A licensed copy of Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate
 Apple_WIn7_Upgrade_Utility.exe, which is available at http://www.apple.com/
support/bootcamp. The Windows 7 installer may not be able to install Windows 7 if
your Mac OS X partition is mounted. This utility unmounts your Mac OS X partition.
It will be mounted again when you download updated software for Windows 7.
