[QUOTE="book5550, post: 1088937, member: 166870"] Hi, I've heard great things of this bootcamp, I installed it with no problems, got the drivers up (3.1) and successfully got windows 7 running. However, after installing a multitude of games that other people tought as very playable in bootcamp such as Call of Duty 4 and Bad company 2 I was disappointed to find that whatever I do, not a single game I install will start or start properly. -Call of Duty 4 gives me ''direct X unrecoverable error'' -Bad Company 2(fully updated, non CD install) brings up a small white window which quickly disappears -Counter Strike 1.6 starts into Software mode and lags while even browsing menus -Portal shows the valve logo in a tiny window and then crashes I'd rather not waste my time installing any more games if not even these run. So what do I do? -I've got direct X 9 up -Running a 70GB partitioned Windows 7 HD bootcamp -I'm running a MacBook Pro 13 inch 2010 model -Running bootcamp 3.1 [/QUOTE]
