The next problem was in making the usb stick (8gig sandisk cruiser) bootable, I tried a few suggestions found on Macrumors forum, but most were just wrong. I used rEFIt, this is an awesome app for multi booting a Mac. After some research I found an app that would allow me to boot from a usb device. This was due to the super drive not reading them, all 3 disks worked perfectly in my desktop.Īnyway, I was back to the USB install idea.
#BOOTCAMP BLUETOOTH DRIVER WINDOWS 7 MACBOOK PRO EARLY 2009 HOW TO#
I knew how to make a bootable DVD from an ISO using Nero, but after 3 failed attempts (they would boot, but fail when copying files to the hdd). I was working with a Windows 7 Pro 32bit ISO from the Digital River download. The USB port would lose power about halfway through the boot process. I ran into the first snag when the Macbook didn't want to boot from a usb drive, something to do with EFI. I used Bootcamp to partition the drive with 50gig for Snow Leopard and the rest for W7. I started with clean install of SL on a new 250gig hdd. I got it all working fine, but not without some hangups along the way.
BTW, I did a little checking on using the Synaptics drivers, but it seems thats only for Linux users? My other PC laptops have features for the trackpad that I wish the Macbook had, but the sensitivity was the only real "problem" (and still is).
My orginal complain with the touchpad was it's sensitivity and the lack of any way to adjust that. I will breifly go into my complaint about the touchpad on this Macbook, but I really don't want this to be a thread on that problem.
