Upon successful completion, I was prompt for a reboot. I let setup proceed and the Boot Camp drivers installed. I inserted the DVD and Windows automatically asked to run Setup.exe.

My guess is the firmware was looking for an OS X and when absent, settled for a Windows BIOS boot.įor this model, the Boot Camp drivers for Windows Vista are stored on the Apple OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD. Each time, a question mark momentarily appeared in the center of the screen, then the Mac booted to Windows 7. After installing, I removed the DVD and did a few reboots. The install proceeded normally, just like a PC. I deleted all partitions and created a single NTFS partition. I took an old iMac4,1 and booted from a Windows 7 SP1 32bit install DVD.
If it worked for Fedora, I don't see why it wouldn't work for Windows. The machine was iMac7,1 (iMac 21 inch Mid 2007). I have never tried to do this, but I accidentally installed Fedora 21 workstation 32 bit mode this way from a live DVD.
No OS X and therefore no Boot Camp Assistant. Can the internal drive be partitioned MBR? There would be no GPT partitions.Ĭan Windows then be installed using the traditional BIOS boot method.
