Hi all
I bought this Mac wanting to feel the nostalgia of when the family computer was a 2006 Mac. After buying this I ran into many problems on Snow Leopard 10.6.3 not being able to run the software I wanted to use. In the process of trying to install Windows 10 I somehow wiped the device. Went to the laptop repair shop and was told that my laptop would not run windows 10 (I disagreed) and he handed me a windows 7 disk which I couldn't care which Windows was on it so long as it worked.
So I installed Windows which went through fine, two problems.
First and most important I have no sound, the audio output in the bottom right has a red and white cross through it.
Second my webcam is not detected.
The first issue I've done all sorts like download bootcamp drivers and extract and the realtek drivers too and nothing has worked.
Bout ready to throw the **** thing. Would appreciate help because I've tried everything I can find on the internet, its the old Macbook pro 2006 17"
model is A1151 I believe.
Also anyone able to give advice on how to get snow leopard back on without a disk and get it on dual boot.
