I try to install windows 7 ultimate 64bit, but it was not successful... Pls help! how can I install this on my mac... Teach me and guide what are the things I need to do. Thank you!... :)
 
You say you weren't successful - what exactly went wrong?

How can you install it? By using Bootcamp.

That said, I have a feeling Apple doesn't support anything lower than Windows 8 on the current generation of MacBooks. That and Windows 7's HiDPI support leaves much to be desired.

It's not going to go well, because:

1. Haswell and later Macs will install Windows in UEFI by default, something which Windows 7 doesn't support (without a lot of tweaking).

2. Windows 7 does not support HiDPI properly.
