I'm trying to install windows 7 through bootcamp, every time i use boot camp assistant i get "Can't download the software because of a network problem" when trying to download the software support from apple. I tried a manual download of Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5621 and that worked to install windows. After starting windows 7 up however a lot of drivers are missing, I cannot see the mac partition at all from the windows side, there were no graphics drivers, and a few other issues. Is this the wrong support software - I'm using a macbook pro 2014 retina which says to use boot camp assistant rather than one of the manual software downloads but I can't get that to work.

Thank you
