Apple is knows for constant innovation and evloution. Moving from proprietary “in-box” processor to Intel based processors was a great move for Apple. Exploiting the capabilities of Intel processors, Apple has provisioned for using Microsoft Windows Operating System alongside the Mac OSX. Though this may not impress Apple fans, but provides an opportunity to PC users to switch to  Apple hardware.

Apple has made this possible through their revolutionary “Boot Camp” application. Boot Camp enables installation of Windows on Intel based Mac Computer using a Microsoft Windows installation CD/DVD.  Apple provides full hardware and video support for Windows XP & Windows Vista.

Since it supports Windows Vista, I thought of getting my hands on to Boot Camp to try and get Windows 7 work on Apple machine.

Apple instantly recognized the burned ISO of Windows 7 Beta and installed it like any other version of Windows. There were some issues with the drivers, but I was able to successfully get rid of the problem through the Mac OS X disc that came with the machine. Browse to Drivers folder on the disc and whola… you are done.

There were some issues with sound, which I resolved by downloading the drivers from the manufacturer site.

I haven’t yet tried using the Windows 7 64 Bit on Mac Book, but if the drivers are available, it should work too.
