Hey. This is my first post here but I've found this sight helpful in the past when I've had issues with my mac and have always been able to find a relevant thread but cant with this specific issue.
I'm trying to install windows 7 on my mac mini i bought about this time last year. I was successfully able to get windows installed on another partition but lack the drivers to make it run properly because I've completely lost the disk my mac mini came with. I tried to use my moms disk from her 13 inch macbook pro and it seemed like everything was going well until i restarted the computer and the windows partiton came up black after the windows logo. Do i need a specific mac mini disk for my particular hardware? I went to the apple store and they said they diddnt have any. Is there anywhere I can find the bootcamp drives for windows on the internet. I tried downloading one from apples website and when i put the disk in the windows mode it did not even read it. I'de really like to solve this without waiting for crap to mail but I guess thats my fault for loosing my disk. Is somewhere else I can get this software for my computer? I dont care where because as I see it legally purchased it and just misplaced it.
Thanks maybe this post is too long but I wanted to include as much info as possble
