Using the iMac 27 inch mid 2011 as an external monitor with a PC via mini DisplayPort If you run the wizard of BC, are you give the possibility to create an installer from USB? Did you change Bootcamp ist file? I read everything I could on the subject and could not get the Boot Camp Assistant to create the USB key. Hello! How to install windows 8.1 iMac (27 inch, mid 2011) without DVD drive and race El Capitan? I conclude this behavior due to the fact the disk is partitioned in Uefi mode.How to install windows 8.1 iMac (27 inch, mid 2011) without DVD drive and race El Capitan If I try to install Windows 10, Boot Camp says the OS is not supported. I wasn't able to use Boot Camp and had to prepare everything by hand, since I don't get the option to install Windows 10 from Boot Camp, only 8 and 7.


I tried feeding it Intel xHCI drivers with usb keys, it sees the keys but says it doesn't find any driver. This doesn't happen when installing in Uefi mode. I chose "Windows" for the setup DVD instead of "Uefi Boot" at boot.īut just before the point where Windows usually asks which disk to install on, it actually asks for a missing driver. So I tried to install Windows 10 in Legacy/Bios mode. At least that's what I understood after googling myself to death.

I found out audio doesn't work because Uefi Windows 10 installation somehow keeps a Cirrus audio-related device from working. I get the exclamation point on Device Manager and a message saying the device couldn't be started properly. I have successfully installed it alongside MacOS High Sierra actually, and everything works fine except for audio. It's not officially supported, but I read everywhere it can be done.

I've been trying to install Windows 10 on an early 2011 Macbook Pro.
