Subject: Re: boot camp
Wayne, I just did this yesterday, so its fresh in my mind. Here goes.
first I assume your MBP has a CD/DVD drive? if not then I can't help you.
if so, then, run bootcamp assistant, check the box for installing windows
and uncheck the box for downloading the bootcamp drivers as you
already have
them.
On the next screen, set the partition size for bootcamp. I just pressed
"divide equally" which gives equal sizes to both Mac and Bootcamp
windows.
If you want, you can interact with the divider or splitter thingy and
change
the size of each partition as you like.
Now, insert your windows7 installation CD into the CD/DVD drive and press
install.
Bootcamp assistant will create the bootcamp (windows7) partition and
reboot
into the windows installer.
Now, you need sighted assistance because there's no VO, and no way to have
speech until you complete the windows instal.
Get someone who's computer literate, preferably someone who uses windows7
all the time and can easily get around the screens with a mouse or the
keyboard. In other words, don't ask your 90 year old grandmother for
sighted
assistance.
Once windows7 is fully installed and setup, insert the bootcamp drivers CD
and install them.
Finally, you can install a screen reader and windows will come up talking.
You'll Need:
1) your windows7 CD and the Product Key at the ready.
2) the bootcamp drivers CD.
3) your screen reader and its product key. I burned jaws12 installer
package
onto a CD and had the registration key ready.
I think that's about it. Check out Black Viper's windows7 installation
guide
thoroughly - it'll give you an idea of the steps involved in the win7
install.
Also, very important, during the win7 install, at the Disk Drives screen
where you're asked where you want to install windows, you MUST select the
Bootcamp partition that the assistant created. And, you must check the
box
that says to Format thwe partition. Read the appropriate section in the
bootcamp install guide for more info on that.
Once you're past that screen, the remainder of the win7 install is fairly
straightforward. I had the BlackViper tutorial up on another machine and
used it to follow along step-by-step with my sighted assistant as he went
through the win7 install screens, so I know what he was doing.
Good Luck,

Subject: Re: boot camp
I don't have a link, but I did this on my mac mini 2012 with a thumb
drive
and a quick trip into the windows command line (of course, the
windows pac
must also have a cd drive). Just google something like "set up bootcamp
with
no cd drive" and you should find plenty of help. You could also get a usb
disk drive, something you might find handy not just for this but for the
occasional cd or dvd you find yourself needing to play for whatever
reason.
