i have read the tutorials for using boot camp and i have run across a problem. i am trying to install win 7 from flash drive and i cant get the drivers/ cant find the drivers on md hdd ("Boot Camp set of drivers, and the remote CD/DVD tool"). i have tried to download the windows support software option in boot camp and it will say "the windows support software is unavailable". so i am at a loss for what to try next. idk if it will work without it or totally fail. i dont know the file name to search for it, wether it be on the computer or the internet.

system
2.4 ghz intel core duo
2gb ram
osx 10.6.8

please help thx
jeff

You didn't tell us the year and model of your Mac? The Boot Camp support software will only be downloaded for the late model Macs. Late 2010 - 2012 models which can only run Windows 7.

The drivers you need should be available on your Snow Leopard DVD. After installation, run software update from the Boot Camp control panel in Windows.
