Boot Camp Drivers - Win7 64Bit

[Slovig]

So I just finished installing Windows 7 Professional 64bit via boot camp, but I had an issue when I put in the 10.6 disc to get the Drivers for everything. I'm running the 2.4Ghz Aluminum MacBook (not the pro). When I try to run the disc, it says that x64 is not supported on this machine. Am I boned? Or are there other options, because I really don't want to buy 32bit, because my school provides 64bit for free. I'm just looking for the drivers for the iSight, trackpad functions, and the keyboard functions (volume, iTunes, etc). Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

If I remember correctly, this is what worked for me:

Right click on the BootCamp64.exe file. You will get a menu. Select "Troubleshoot Compatibility". That should set BootCamp64 to run in either Windows XP SP2 or Vista SP2. Then (if you have User Account Control On), a Yellow Shield will appear in the Win7 Task Bar. Click on that Shield and you'll get a window asking you to allow the program to run. This is giving "Administrator" access to the BootCamp64.exe program. Click on OK.

This brings me to my next problem, how the hell do I right click w/o the trackpad preferences....

*goes to see if i can find an external mouse*



EDIT:

You sir, are my hero. If I had a cookie, I'd give it to you. Thanks!

Glad it worked!
