After finally figuring out how to get the Bootcamp drivers successfully installed on Windows 8 I figured I share how I did it.

The known issues of using the cd that is supplied with macbook pro is that it requires windows xp, vista, or 7 and says there are compaitability errors and wont install.

If one right clicks and opens the files within the CD select, Bootcamp

Then the folder that states Drivers

Then click the exe for your machine (32/64bit)

It will run a check on the installer and then state that it will bypass the verifcation and proceed

This is solution works for me compared to manually installing each driver or right clicking the the the standard setup.exe and running stating that it worked with a previous version of windows


Hope this helps somone out
