Help installing windows 7 with Boot Camp

[2010mini]

Hello all,

I have a 2010 MBP running 10.10 Yosemite.

I want to install windows on for my wife who just needs it for certain applications that cannot run on OS X. I have a USB drive with every windows version currently available. But they are in .SWM format.

is it possible to install windows with .SWM in boot camp? If not, does anyone know how i can convert to .ISO??

thnaks.

The .SWM file is an archived split image file.
You can extract the original .WIM using some software like ExtractNow, or ImageX. Either of those are Windows apps, so you would do that task on a computer running Windows.
When you have rejoined the .SWM files, then you should have a .WIM, which will easily convert to the .ISO that you need for the Bootcamp install.
