A lot of drivers were installed (but since no matching hardware was found, they all remain dormant). Here are some screenshots of the procedure. This will launch the boot camp installation wizard. Change directory to the boot camp directory by typing “cd boot camp”. This should pop up a command promt at the root directory of your OSX dvd. Ignore the autorun notification and right-click the DVD icon while holding down the shift key, then choose “Open command window here.” Please see the disclaimer before you continue): Here are the screen shots of installing boot camp on my Sony VAIO running Windows 7 32bit Professional (this procedure worked for me, but it it may very well make your computer unstable.

So I figured, if the windows boot camp software works on a MacBook running Windows 7, why couldn’t it work on a Sony VAIO or any computer running Windows 7? With the software installed and running in the notification area, guess what all the Fn buttons on my MacBook and even the USB aluminum keyboard work as advertised (including Eject, etc). Installing the software provides drivers for things like the trackpad…and – drum roll – the keyboard.

After installing a fresh copy of OSX, the process getting Windows 7 圆4 Pro installed on my Macbook with the boot camp Assistant went exactly as advertised.Īccording to the BC Assistant instructions the last step of the process involves installing the boot camp software within Windows using the OSX installation DVD. So this Thanksgiving weekend I finally had time to re-install OSX on my Macbook (tried creating a partition for windows using boot camp and was told to re-install OSX – just Google “bootcamp partition error”). Log out and back in or reboot to use your new special keys. Click Write to Registry when you’re done adding all your key mappings. Click Type Key to associate a key with the “From Key” mapping and likewise with the “To Key” mapping or just pick one of the choices and click OK.
With your Apple Keyboard plugged in, unzip the SharpKeys download to your desktop and run the SharpKeys.exe executable. Grab a free copy of SharpKeys 3.0 from Codeplex
A few hours of use later I found myself in a bit of a pickle though…the Apple keyboard has no Print Screen key, no Num Lock or Insert and it’d sure be nice to get those function keys to work. Windows detected it as an Apple keyboard without any 3rd party drivers and with the exception of the Function (Fn) keys, I was using the keyboard in seconds. I figured if I just picked a used one up on eBay and hooked it up to my Sony VAIO running Windows 7 圆4 what’s the worst that could happen? It worked surprisingly well, that’s what happened. I love the new aluminum Apple keyboard, but am too cheap to buy the iMac it usually comes with.
