I have the 17" Uni and having probs installing Boot Camp drivers. Im in the middle of moving and packed the original Leopard discs in storage. however I tried this with a legit Leopard purchased disc and still problems. I will test again after visit with storage :)
Its just weird that even with the BootCamp 2.1 upgrade this isnt fixed with the recent 17" Uni MBP?
 
Timur, this thread is pretty old but found it googling on how to get bootcamp working on my 2008 unibody mbp.

Thankssssss for uploading it to zshare, I was having a super hard time getting the drivers to work with the Leopard Disk!
 
My pleasure! Also have a look at the following thread of mine. Eventhough it's rather specific for getting rid of audio problems several people reported that the steps described there also help in getting a more stable Windows system (no more freezing).

The Exe is right there inside the 7Z archive. You need to unzip it first using one of the I linked. For unzipping Gui Tar might be the easiest solution. Version 1.2 is Universal Binary now.

Free 7-ZIP Compressor (Windows, Unix/Linux, Mac OS X) Homepage: http://www.7-zip.org


Mac OS X GUI Frontends to 7-ZIP (7-ZIP included!):

7zX 1.7.1 (best feature-set and compression, Finder integration via supplied Automator, offers best compression without need for command-line parameters, allows creation of SFX for Mac and inclusion/disregarding of Resource Forks/Metadata, multipart files, multi-threaded, optional command-line parameters, 64-bit 7za):

EZ 7z 0.65 (offers selection of destination directory for compression/decompression, less features than 7zX, 64-bit 7za):

GUI Tar 1.1.1 (not recommended: PPC compression only! problems with Unicode names in Documentation Folder of Bootcamp drivers! gives too little information of what it does):

Hi
I wonder if my Macbook would work. Coz my Macbook pro has different spec => 2.5GHz,4G ram, 8600GT-512mb
I don't have the original OS X DVD, and I want to install xp. Couldn't find any drivers on the internet.
Are the drivers shareable?
I'm a new Mac user, nice to meet you guys:)
 
The driver package even holds drivers for ATI and different WLAN hardware so it's likely gonna work. Just try yourself. ;)
 
upload anywhere else?

Can someone upload these anywhere else? rapidshare, megaupload,mega share etc.
Thanks
