I have been searching for a long time and eventually came across this solution and I would like to share this so u guys dont have to google all over the place again. However bootcamp wont allow me to do so since I have a optical drive on the laptop.
Bootcamp usb install for mac on windows install#
Then please see Bootcamp install windows to black screen for a possible solution. So basically, I have trying to install windows on my mbp using a usb drive. If you see error messages which are similar to the following screens. If Audio does not work, you need to use a legacy BIOS installation. The quickest check is either using msinfo32 or testing your Audio. These Macs do not properly support EFI Boot, even if Windows will install.
Warning: Do not use a USB Installer on 2011 or older Macs.
If you get a GPT vs MBR error, GPT Fdisk ( ) can be used to remove the Hybrid MBR.Ī Protective MBR allows EFI Boot on Late 2013 or later Macs.A Hybrid MBR allows Windows in legacy BIOS mode using the Windows icon from the USB Installer on 2012-2014 Macs. Boot from the USB, and choose the FAT32 partition as destination and install Windows. To create a partition manually which will be the designated Windows installation destination, create a FAT32 partition using Disk Utility. Select all the individual files/folders in the Finder window and Copy (or Drag) them to the USB. Mount the ISO by right-clicking on the ISO and choosing Open. Note: There is some confusion whether the entire ISO is copied as a single file to a FAT-formatted device which does not support files larger 4GB. Copy the entire contents of your Windows ISO to this USB. You will also need to add the Bootcamp drivers to the USB as noted in step 11 of section Follow these steps if you downloaded version 5 of Windows Support Software in Install Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support. Bootcamp 4/5 drivers from Apple to the root of the USB for W7/W8.1, as appropriate. These can be downloaded using BC Assistant -> Action -> Download. 
Bootcamp 6 drivers from Apple to the root of the USB for W10. Note: If you use W10 1903 or later ISOs from Microsoft, the install.wim is larger than 4GiB, and will not fit on a FAT32 USB.
