RE: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp

2016-11-16 Thread Simon Fogarty
I've got an apple thunderbolt or mini display to VGA adaptor that I use 
sometimes on  a big screan,
I find I have to restart the mac book air I have if I try to plug the adaptor 
in to windows while it's going, for some reason it doesn't just plug and play, 
it does with Mac OSX but not windows and that's on my windows 10 side.

 But I have all the correct bootcamp drivers installed so possible I've missed 
something alogn the way.

So Windows 10 it is then. I saw some references online to it working under 7, 
but wasn't sure.

Thanks for the reply,

Re: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp

2016-11-16 Thread jeff `greene
Hi I too have windows running under bootcamp and I have two
thunderbolt hard drives. They have never worked under windows 7 or now
under windows 10. They work fine under OSX. I think its just how the
bootcamp drivers are written, that as soon as you switch to windows
thunderbolt is turned off.

Subject: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp

Hi all.
 I thought, at the time of purchase, this would be the ideal solution for me. I 
have an eleven inch Macbook Air, and so I'm limited on how many peripherals I 
can connect. So, I purchased a Thunderbolt dock to offset this challenge. It 
works fine under Mac OS, but will not work under Windows 7 on my Bootcamp 
partition. I plugged it in while running Windows, with no results, so switched 
to Mac OS and it works great. However, for the skae of my employer, I must run 
Windows. When I plug the device in under Windows, I got the error that the 
hardware had not been installed properly. I rebooted, and tried again. Now, in 
the System Tray, I have an eject Hardware option, with the Thunderbolt Doc now 
as an option to eject. However, even when plugging in a USB keyboard, Windows 
doesn't appear to recognize that it's there. I also tried an external hard 
drive. I can't find it under device manager to uninstall the driver, and there 
doesn't seem to be much on Google regarding the subject. So, does anyone else 
happen to know what I can do to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly 
appreciated!

Thanks so much!
Scott
