Jun 19, 2015  Question: Q: How to fix 'No bootable device, insert boot disk and press enter'? I tried to use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 7 to my Mac mini (mid-2011, i5 2.3Ghz, with most updated OS X Yosemite), and the Boot Camp Assistant formatted my USB drive and copied the ISO image of Windows 7 into it successfully. Feb 03, 2008  Hello! I've got some problems with installing an acoustic system (Microlab A-6201, there is no drivers for this system) on my Windows XP (I'm using Boot Camp now). I plug in this system using one of two empty slots on MAC Mini (one slot is for earphones, so I plugged in using another slot). Jul 03, 2019 The 10GbE NIC in my mini 2018 keeps dropping the connection and stating that the cable is no longer connected when run in Windows 10 1903. The only way to restore the connection is to power off and then power on again. A reboot does not restore the connection. I've tried the older iMac Pro. Sep 05, 2015 my mac mini mid 2011 works fine with windows 10 in boot camp but trackpad only works with left button. No updates for bootcamp after windows 10 working. I don't know if reinstall windows 8.1 drivers for tracpad and keyboard. If Boot Camp isn't going to work smoothly on the Mac Mini with an eGPU then I think I may go with a new iMac instead. I have a 2013 iMac now, and I'm pretty happy with it overall, but it is starting to show its age. I was hoping that a Mac Mini would give me a more flexible upgrade path down the road, but only if it can run Boot Camp reliably.

If you can't download or save the Windows support software:

  • If the assistant says that the Windows support software could not be saved to the selected drive, or that the USB flash drive can't be used, make sure that your USB flash drive has a storage capacity of at least 16GB and is formatted correctly.
  • If the assistant doesn't see your USB flash drive, click Go Back and make sure that the drive is connected directly to the USB port on your Mac—not to a display, hub, or keyboard. Disconnect and reconnect the drive, then click Continue.
  • If the assistant says that it can't download the software because of a network problem, make sure that your Mac is connected to the Internet.
