Bootcamp 1.2 Does Vista


Recommended Posts

Not sure if this has been posted, Search didn't come up with anything.

boot camp has been updated

From http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/

Boot Camp 1.2 beta includes:

* Support for Windows Vista (32-bit)

* Updated drivers, including but not limited to trackpad, AppleTime (synch), audio, graphics, modem, iSight camera

* Support the Apple Remote (works with iTunes and Windows Media Player)

* A Windows system tray icon for easy access to Boot Camp information and actions

* Improved keyboard support for Korean, Chinese, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Russian, and French Canadian

* Improved Windows driver installation experience

* Updated documentation and Boot Camp on-line help in Windows

* Apple Software Update (for Windows XP and Vista)

Downloading now. I'll let you know if it's any good on Vista

I shall try using Windows Vista again.

Does this solve the stuttering of audio and the jerkyness of the trackpad? :(

I have the 24" and Blutooth keyboard and mouse running Visa Ultimate. Here's what changed from Bootcamp 1.1.2 to 1.2 on my machine.

- Mighty Mouse now has the cabability of scrolling again (Yay!).

- Keyboard buttons (volume up/down, mute and eject) still doesn't work.

- Audio still stutters (hmm...)

- Screen brightness works

- Apple Bluetooth-driver seems to be working ok (haven't tested yet)

- Apple Remote works with WMP11

Although i have all the icons in the tray and everything installed fine there still seems to be problems with the wireless drivers (causing the audio stutter) and functionality with Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

Best regards

    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
