Sep 26, 2011 Which is the ethernet controller on Mid 2010 Macbook. Discussion in 'Windows, Linux & Others on the Mac' started by sajinseethi. I have a Mid-2010 17' MacBook Pro (in signature). I have Windows 7 64-bit installed. It shows the NIC is a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet card. I am setting up a 16.04 installation on an old Macbook pro with a Broadcom B4322 (14e4:432b). As this hasn't worked out of the box I've tried installing other drivers: • bcmwl-kernel-source • firmware-b43-installer • broadcom-sta-common Installing these packages had no effect. Trying to get Windows 7 running on my Haswell iMac, but the Boot Camp drivers appear to be behind/incompatible with this hardware. Has anyone successfully gotten Windows 7 running completely? I have Windows 7 loaded and activated, and it works for non-Internet things. Most of my issues so far are with network drivers, the Broadcom controller. I can momentarily get internet access by disabling/enabling the network driver, but it fails quickly thereafter, like a driver conflict catches up a few seconds after. Other issues include notes in Device Manager that various computer parts are not working, etc. The exclamation points, etc. I have seen some other folks seeking help with this, but no solutions for this hardware yet--too new apparently. Some folks try to help by generically mentioning the Apple Boot Camp and Windows Support downloads, which I'm sure work well with pre-Haswell hardware. My needs are specific to the new iMac. I hope that new drivers are released soon by Apple, and/or that there are alternative Windows 7 drivers I can piece together and use. Rds, Do you have Win 7 operating on a Haswell iMac? The WLAN driver appears to be for Win 8 only, no luck with 7 for that, but I'm wired anyway. Originally, I had an odd problem with the net dropping out very quickly after boot, or after re-enabling the driver--like I'd get one web page loaded and then I lost the Internet. I put some specific DNS addresses in the settings and now it works without dropping out. Chand chupa badal mein episode 1. Some things I don't have working yet include sound, WLAN and Bluetooth. For some reason the driver info shows sound trying to go out an SPDIF port instead of the display audio. Download Setup File IDM Full Version With Crack 6.30 Build 10 Fake Serial Fixed Now we have updated this post again with IDM 6.30 Build 10 Full Crack Patch Keygen. Jmatpro keygen idml. IDM (Internet Download Manager) is a powerful file download program to local PC from the internet. I'd consider it 'done for now' once I get the sound working. Then I'll just wait for Apple to update or some source of good Win 7 drivers for the rest of it. Haven't tried Windows 7 I'm afraid as I needed 8 to boot off a USB drive. Because some of the hardware has unique identifiers, you have to go into Device Manager and tell it what/where the driver is. Make sure that the ethernet controller is listed as a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet in device manager. Driver works flawlessly in Windows 8. The sound card is a Cirrus Logic CS4206B. You have to replace the HD Audio under Sound devices BUT 1) I don't know which AB version it is 2) it will only output through the speakers (which is better than nothing & possibly to do with the wrong AB number being chosen) 3) Leave the Nvidia audio stuff. (yes that's right, 4207 the drivers can be find under the resources tab.) The unknown Bluetooth controller is compatible with the Apple Bluetooth driver (again, you must right click in device manager and choose the driver from the list assuming you ran Boot Camp from the Support folder via setup or the individual installer.) If you haven't managed to install the Boot Camp drivers, use the test compatibility mode to run it and it should let it install the drivers, just uninstall any software you think is not applicable. Apologies for the notes, I don't use Windows day-to-day anymore so can't remember the precise walkthrough. Hey that is great info, thanks for it. I'll be trying it out this evening. I'll respond here with the results so others using Win 7 can find it as a reference. Definitely appreciate your time in sharing. And yeah, I too have become less familiar with Windows settings since I went Mac at home for most things. Update: you are correct, the Cirrus drivers took care of the sound. I used the last AB on the list, I think it was AB98 and the sound comes through the display speakers. I think I did notice a difference in sound between OSX and Windows on some Youtube stuff, I wonder if the AB#'s make any difference there, will look into it. Although I plan to clean up the drivers eventually, i.e. Bluetooth, etc, I feel like I now have a fully functioning Boot Camp Win 7 instance. Windows, Zone Alarm, Spybot and drivers got me up to about 80 GB.
