Home / Blogs / windows WINDOWS 18/01/2022 Trying to lớn get Windows 7 up and running on my 2010 MBP. After downloading the Windows 7 .iso and inserting my 4 GB flash drive (which should be large enough), I open up Boot Camp only khổng lồ see that the option for "Create a Windows 7 Install Disk" is grayed out.Bạn đang xem: WindowsI don"t have any DVDs on me, and I don"t really feel like wasting gas going out và buying a pack of them just for this while I have a perfectly functional USB flash drive on hand. User profile for user: Csound1 User profile for user: kermit4161 I am having the same issue with a Windows 7 installation with Boodcamp. Since the 10.7.2 update, the BCA has changed, combining the partitioning and installation into one step. It won"t recognize my ISO disk as a valid installer disk, so sarakhanov.comcare support recommended creating a Flashdrive install disk... But that option is greyed out. I have found no way to lớn get access to that option.My opinion is they broke the BCA trying to make it more user friendly. It worked fine for me in the initial 10.7 build and in 10.7.1. Now it is basically unusable (for me). If anyone knows how khổng lồ get this opened up, I"d really appreciate it.

It"ll depend on the mã sản phẩm of computer you have whether or not the USB Flashdrive boot option will be available. If the computer doesn"t support booting from a USB drive, then the option wont be available. The tech helping me out is going to get me a menu of computers supported. I"m not sure this is the whole answer though as the máy vi tính I"m working on is a brand new MBP.. So we"ll see. I"ll post the danh mục when I get it.

I will try to bởi a quick tutorial here.Open Utilities(or where ever the boot camp assistant.app is at.) Hold Ctrl key và click Boot camp Assistant.app, The second option on the pop up thực đơn will be Show Package Contents. Click that, then xuất hiện Contents folder, then xuất hiện the info.plist file with the property viewer. Scroll down to USBBootSupportedModels, xuất hiện that listing and look at each item. By default you should have:IM130, MM50, MP60, MB80, MBP90, MBA40Heres what I did. I brought up my system information và looked for the model Identifier, Mine is MacBook2,1. Based off how the above numbers are based, I put 2 & 2 together. I added a child string to lớn the list in the info.plist file và typed in MB21(this will vary based on your mã sản phẩm Identifier). I had to lớn save the info.plist file to another location(apparently it wont let you save khổng lồ the one in the .app). I then renamed the original info.plist tệp tin in the Boot Camp Assistant.app Contents folder to info.plist.old(just khổng lồ preserve the old file), then took the new edited file và dropped it into the Contents folder along with the info.plist.old file và everything else in there. Once thats done, you just back out to lớn the Utilities thư mục and xuất hiện Boot Camp Assistant. If everything went properly, you should have the option now checkable, if something went wrong, you probably didn"t decipher the mã sản phẩm Identifier properly.I have not attempted an install just yet, I will be trying this in the next few hours. For the record my laptop macbook is the black Macbook Mid 2007 model. I will update this thread once I try this process và see if my macbook will boot off usb properly.
