Hello everyone,
I am new here and new to mac's. So I tried to install windows 7 ultimate on an external hard drive to boot up on a mac. I have a macbook pro osx 10.6.8 (old i know) and i used VMware fusion 5 along with the latest WinToUsb. I followed this youtube tutorial called "How to install Windows 10 on Mac using an external drive" by 9to5mac. Everything worked out fine but when i restart and boot from the windows 7 external hard drive, i get a dark screen with a blinking cursor.
Do any of you geniuses know what might be the cause and solution to fixing this issues besides having to buy a new laptop/computer? lol..
