I am almost 100% positive it has something to do with the drivers. I am sure that the problem would go away if I could install the latest catalyst drivers, but alas I can not because I get a BSOD. Just for measure, I have never, ever gotten a BSOD on my desktops that are not mac. This is a strictly mac-related problem.

I tried installing the Omega drivers, and that helped a bit. A couple games started up, but MANY don't. To name a few off of my head, the major ones would be Operation Flashpoint, Battlefield 2, Hitman: Blood Money, and CellFactor. Either it does not start up at all, or I get a black screen for a second and it then closes down.

Any suggestions?

Boot camp is BETA. The drivers are BETA.

If you want it fixed, contact apple at their feedback page. Or send it to bootcamp@apple.com. (http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/)

If there is already thread on the game, you might ask why you are having a problem while others aren't. Especially if you have a MacBook Pro.
