I need help. I'm using OS X 10.8.3 on late 2012 iMac and I've prepared everything using the Boot Camp Assistant (create bootable USB drive, download latest Windows support software, create partition).

Then computer was able to boot from the USB drive, then I see the Windows logo, but during the setup, after I selected language, time, and keyboard type, this message pops up: "A media driver your computer needs is missing" (see attachment).

I've tried booting again, using different USB ports, but to no help. Any idea what's going on? Heeeelp :(

Extract the Windows support files to a different USB drive. Tell Windows to look there when asked for the driver. Does that help?

Okay I solved the problem by downloading a different copy of the iso from a different source. Oh... I'm so happy!

Anyway, I wonder how that worked because both iso's had the exact same name and size. But I'm not complaining. :cool:
