Bootcamp For Mac 2010
Guys Will be possible install windows 10 on iMac 2010? Last version available for this Mac is windows 7. Boot Camp helps you install Windows OS on Intel-based Mac by downloading the necessary support software, creating a partition on your disk for Windows, and then Apparently the mac mini 2010 model does not support bootcamp 5 or windows 8. Well I tired it out anyway and it worked flawlessly.
Part A: Create Bootable Windows 10 USB Drive There are plenty of tutorials available online for this step. Here's one using Windows: • Download the from Microsoft • Download • Install & Use the tool with the ISO (Pretty obvious eh?) and use FAT32 formatting with GPT for UEFI based systems in the dropdown.
Part B: Partition HDD/SSD for Windows 10 using Disk Utility • Open Disk Utility and select the disk on the sidebar () • Click on the Partition Tab and then the '+' icon • Create a new partition with any name & size (preferably >30GB) and format it to FAT32 • Click Apply and wait for changes to take effect • Close Disk Utility Part C: Install rEFInd Note: This is done to support booting from USB Drives on old MB/MBP. • Download • Extract the zip file • Open Terminal App • CD to the extracted folder's location (Google how to use CD commands) • Type './install.sh' without the quotation marks • Enter password • Run the command on step 5 again!!! (Sometimes it doesn't work on the first go.) • Quit Terminal App and Shut Down your MB/MBP Part D: Install Windows 10 • When you boot, you'll see rEFInd window instead • You'll be presented with the option to boot from USB drive. • Select the right-most option! (The one with USB thumbnail! Select the 2nd one if 2 USB thumbnail options are available.) • Install Windows 10 (Same as the installation for Windows 8/8.1) • Your MB/MBP will reboot. Select the Windows Icon with Hard Disk thumbnail this time!!!
• Installation will proceed. Part E: Downloading Boot Camp Drivers After Windows 10 is up and running: • Download • Extract the Drivers on the Desktop. • Run CMD or PowerShell as administrator (Use the combination Shift + fn + F10 for right-click) • CD into BootCamp5.1.5722/BootCamp/Drivers/Apple • Run 'BootCamp.msi' Note: We are using CMD/PowerShell to bypass Elevated Permissions for MSI Installer Et Voila!!! All drivers will install automatically via Boot Camp. Latest and compatible NVIDIA and ATI drivers will automatically get installed via Windows Update!

Optional Part E: Bypass rEFInd boot screen • Boot to OS X • Go to System Preferences • Select Startup Disk • Select BOOTCAMP or Macintosh HD (or whatever your OS X partition is named) • Click Restart • • • • •. I updated my dual boot windows 7 to windows 10 by going to the Microsoft install process. After that I had a Windows 10 install with older drivers. If you did the same then the above will not work due to that bootcamp is already installed. Instead, you can run the individual exe files in the same Drivers/Apple directory to update your drivers to the latest version.
Also AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi seems to work well. I had problems with my keyboard driver from windows 7. This procedure fixed this for me.
The easiest way is to run BootCamp with a Windows 7 or 8 installation Disk. Once BootCamp creates the partition and starts to load the Windows 7 or 8 Installer, power off the Mac by holding the power button for ten seconds. Boot the Mac while holding option key then eject the disk.
Power off the Mac again. Insert your Windows 10 USB Installer and Power on the Mac. It will start up in Windows 10 Installer. Select the BootCamp partition created (you may need to click 'format' for Windows to use this partition) then proceed with installation of Windows 10. Afterwards install the BootCamp drivers.
