Apple Air Dual system (Win7)



Colleague bought an Apple air. Use not accustomed, hope to install a Win7 again, after many experiments, get for example the following operation method:

1. Find "Boot Camp Assistant" in "useful tool" in Mac system. Follow the prompts after opening. There are three tips, this time you want to select the second project and the third project. And to insert an empty USB drive, a USB drive with a Windows7 (64-bit) system. The next step is to update boot camp with the download of Apple's Windows driver to the USB drive (this is a very important operation.) Otherwise the old prompt you to plug in the USB drive, I am very irritable here, and so on after the update, will appear to let the partition screen. Partitions the original Mac partition into a piece of space to create the Windows partition. Partitions can only be used to install the system, that is, after the installation of Windows only a C partition.

The partition size depends on your needs.

2. Boot Camp Assistant will be prompted after the partition is completed. The system will proactively reboot itself.

3, after another startup, the MacBook will take the initiative to enter the Windows installation interface, and the PC installation system is no different, the only difference is the location of the partition. This place is not an accident. should be showing 4 partitions, one is your Mac partition, one is already divided into boot camp is the future Windows partition, another 200M or so small unpartitioned area, note this do not delete or format, The rest of the remaining 100M or so of the non-divided area, the installation of Win7 is often the case. It is usually a reserved partition of the system, regardless of its control.

4. Select the boot Camp partition, and then format the partition directly, and do not delete it.

Choose NTFS format for better compatibility.

Install directly after formatting is complete.

5. After installing Windows completely. Do not plug in any USB devices after entering the desktop. Include mouse, keyboard and other peripherals to put the Mac OS System Recovery CD into the CD drive. Install the boot camp software that is read from the disk. There are Windows driver software for the MAC book Air device, which restarts after the installation is complete.

You will be able to use it when you are done restarting.

Switch between 6 and two systems. At boot time. Press and hold the Optain key, then select the operating system's disk symbol, enter after enter. Do not press the operation to restore the system hard disk, otherwise it will be restored.
