Hi I need a little help I have a Apple MacBook Pro and I want to use Bootcamp to install the Windows Vista does the Boot Camp 1.1.2 beta drivers works with vista?

Yes they should work.

Cool so the built-in iSight cameras and the built-in microphones should work with Vista just wanted to make sure.

I don't know if those are even working with XP yet, I can't remember, but if they are they "should" work under Vista.

Hi the Apple Boot Camp have the support for the iSight for xp but just not sure about the VISTA yet

Support for built-in microphones
Support for the Apple USB Modem

Improved Apple keyboard support including Delete, PrintScreen, NumLock, and ScrollLock keys
Improved International Apple keyboard support

Just want to ask if anyone have tried to install Vista on there MBP and got everything working.

the real question is why would you want vista at all!!!!

haha j/k i would like to know as well.

I wanted to install VISTA so I can still play my Steam games on my Macbook Pro I still have MAC OS X on it

wouldn't steam run better on XP?

It runs both pretty well I have a desktop running VISTA

I dont have a MBP, but on my macbook vista rc1 runs as well as can be expected from a pre release OS, Aero runs just fine on intigrated GFX, so i would assume that aspect of vista would be good when on a macbook pro as well. general speed was much better on my mac than on my dell (gg worthless P-M )

Hey Empty did you get the built-in iSight cameras and the built-in microphones to work with the new bootcamp drivers for vista?

I'd be very inpressed if they did, a lot of PC specific hardware isn't even running on Vista yet.

I am going to wait for my copy of Vista Ultimate to come in before I install it on my MBP. XP is running great and I have Macdrive installed too, which helps a lot. I have heard that there is a project to get Tiger to read AND WRITE to NTFS (I think it is called FUSE). Does anyone know if Leopard will be able to read and write to NTFS?

Here is the other site I found that show you how to get everything working for VISTA.
