[QUOTE="cichy202, post: 1547053, member: 314094"] Hello, I have a mid-2011 27" iMac with AMD 6900M Series card and I am trying make Windows 7 32bit work. I have succesfully installed Windows using BootCamp, after it booted I have installed BootCamp drivers and restarted Windows. But then the screen went all black. I booted into safe mode and deleted atikmdag.sys and rebooted again. Windows boot perfectly, but I cannot max out the resolution and Aero is of course not working. So I have cleaned ATI/AMD drivers from the system using DriverSweeper and tried installing BootCamp drivers again with the same result. So I wiped them again from the system and tried using graphics drivers from AMD website. I downloaded 13.9 driver and installed it, with the same result again. BootCamp drivers I have found are 4.0.4033. I could not download drivers using BootCamp assistant in OS X because it is running OS X 10.9 and BootCamp 5 and it only downloaded 64 bit drivers. This iMac was running 7 32bit perfectly some time ago. Installing 64 bit Windows is not an option. I am a little out of ideas. Can any of you guys help me plz? [/QUOTE]
