yup, I ve got it working. I know that some people have had audio issues which requires the realtek audio drivers. You ll find instructions on the link included as my source. pretty straightforward, make sure you turn on aero from the control panel. Edit- whoops didn t see the edit button. i updated my site with direct microsoft download links for non-ie users.
I just did this today with no problems and no driver issues. Instructions: 1. Open boot camp assistant in OSX 2. Create a new partition 3. Insert Windows 7 Beta disc 4. Mac will restart and enter windows installation 5. Install on [BOOTCAMP] partition 6. Once installed, insert OSX install disc that came with computer and install the boot camp drivers 7. You should be good to go... FYI - these instructions are for installing any OS onto boot camp. I had to do no extra tweaking to get it to work Windows 7 works full speed w/ aero enabled on my 15quot; Macbook Pro
try it, but i wouldn t suggest any windows higher than an xp. well, aside from the fact that you won t actually be using that, you have a far superior OS imo., that s why you have a mac in the first place. aside from that bootcamp at this time is limited, so its good if the purpose would be for gaming and minor editing. otherwise apps for mac are better. if its anycase, try running parallels instead of bootcamp.
Just found out on Neowin that user Prince 17 manage to install Window 7 on his Macbook pro and it works nicely!: Quote from prince17: quot;Just a heads up. Got Windows 7 Beta 1 installed on Macbook Pro and it works flawlessly. For those of you who can t get their sound to work : Download the Realtek r12.1 drivers and sound will work too. The sad part is that Windows 7 can t read your Mac partition and Mac drive refuses to work.quot; I hope it helps best regards Helldiver
Probably not. Early releases of Boot Camp had problems with Vista, and that was after Vista had been released. Microsoft probably won t work with Apple on compatibility issues until after Windows 7 is released. You can try it, but be prepared to format and reinstall if it hoses up the machine.
