Step 3:

Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows

After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for
Windows using your Mac OS X Leopard installation disc.

The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, such as:

 graphics
 networking
 audio
 AirPort wireless connectivity
 Bluetooth®
 Built-in iSight camera (external iSight cameras aren’t supported)
 Apple keyboards
 Apple Remote
 brightness control for built-in displays

The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and the
Apple Boot Camp system tray item.

To install the Boot Camp drivers:

1

Eject the Windows installation disc.

a

Go to My Computer.

b

Select the optical drive (D:).

c

Click “Eject this disk” in the System Tasks list.

2

Insert the Mac OS X disc.

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.

3

Follow the onscreen instructions.

If a message appears that says the software you are installing has not passed Windows
Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.

Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.

If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you must
respond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.

Important:

Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.

4

After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware
Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).

5

Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
