No windows 7 support?
@ anaknipedro
There are some roads not even Apple can go down.
That’s odd. Windows 7 was intentionally made to be the same as Windows Vista as far as hardware driver support goes. I wonder why it would not be supported in this update.
Thanks MDN

what about magic mouse support for bootcamp 3.0 users?!
@zaphod. Check this blog out, Magic Mouse is nearly fully functional in Windows 7 for me (aside from the forward/back swipe):

Thats kinda lame… Apple promised official Win 7 support by the end of the year, so I would have thought it would be in this release. They only have 4-5 weeks to release yet another version of Bootcamp…. I guess they just wanted to get these features out the door?
I have Win 7 running on the current boocamp. Haven’t had any problems. I agree with UltraVisitor that it is strange the software designed for Vista doesn’t always work on Win 7. Just a couple nights ago I tried to install some MIDI software that was cleared for Vista onto Win 7 and the installer refused to do it.
ever since installing this new boot camp update I can no longer adjust my volume using fn + f10, f11, and f12
@Spark – two things to try if you didn’t already:
1: Run the installer as an administrator (right click on it and select that from the dropdown menu if it’s available)
2: Set its compatibility to Vista (right click, click properties, compatibility)
In my experience, nothing stops Win 7 from installing Vista-compatible software except version checks and needing to run installers as admin.
I know it’s blasphemy to offer help with Windows on MDN (instead of just going “LOL windows sucks”) but that’s not how I roll.
