You guys have been asking for this video for a long time! Sorry for the delay, I underestimated how many issues I would have when I started testing! This video is the first of 2 videos. This one is for UEFI and the 2nd video will be for installing WIndows 10 via Legacy / BIOS. This way might be more compatible if you have issues installing UEFI. Let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you thank you thank you ! This process is a lot trickier than I suspected as there are subtleties during the install than can derail the whole process (I learned the hard way !). Looking forward to the next videos on this series !
Hey, I just wanted to say that you’re videos/walkthroughs, and seemingly unlimited effort to stay up to date and help anyone with questions is amazing. To me personally(and I’m sure countless others), you are EXTREMELY appreciated. Thank you so much.
Ouch ! I just updated the 2 old 2012 I'm offering my boys for X-Mas and I keep getting BSODs. I'm now trying both versions of the 2015 Intel 4000HD Driver (1 on each Macbboks 2012) just to see if it makes a difference...
Also on an unrelated issue to the Win 10 dual boot. I lost DVD playback functionality on the Macbooks 2012 after going to OCLP Montrerey. I first thought that the drive had crapped out. Through troubleshooting with the other MBP I realized it is Monterey. I reverted to Big Sur, hoping this will be be adressed by the community.
@@Mr.Macintosh Yep, no go… 2012 MBP 10,1… Got all the way installed then reboot for first boot and BSOD with igdkmd64.sys then after that just a generic error and same BSOD. Tried to get into safe mode but no dice either just keeps crashing at same point.
@@k0ns0le78 I had that same issue on my 2012 9,1. I fixed it by using a DVD image of Windows 10 downloaded by the Creatinstallmedia executable on another windows machine, then just popped the disc into my Mac and it actually worked. You have a retina without the disc drive tho so you'd have to get an external one.
thank you Mr. Macintosh this was a life savior ; I was able to insall w10 on my macbook pro late 2011 , so thank you keep up the good work we appciate this content
Worked for me on a 2014 Macbook Pro. I added a 2TB NVMe drive, and now have Windows 10 and Ventura as boot options (1TB each). Great job, thank you for the tutorial. Will you be doing a Windows 11 tutorial?
Thanks so much to you and to Dortania. I was happily running OS 12.4 and the machine, MBP late 2013, started nagging to update to 12.5.1. Decisions. Decisions. Last time I did an OS change it took me all day fix it! I download the latest OpenCore-legacy and ran the build. Gritted my teeth and did it. All went well and my Bootcamp still works as well. AM A Zing.
Mr Macintosh, you rock !!! I successfully installed OCLP EFI, Ventura and Windows 10 on my mid 2015 MacBook AIr. I was using the same OCLP that I created for my iMac and that kept crashing windows installation. I thought it was the format GPT or NTFS... NO it was the fact that each OCLP is tailored to the machine it is installing on. So I just dumped the Win10 iso in the download and installed it straight from there to my BootCamp partition, skipping the unneeded USB Boot creation. It's NOT required!. Now I want to install Linux Mint 21.2 and perhaps switch to windows 11 if it's legal, worthy and as straightforward as Windows 10...But BootCamp wont let me shrink the partition it created for Windows. The only option it gives me is to delete to restore that space to Ventura. Can I just use the disk management within Windows 10 to shrink the partition and then install linux into that freed up space? How will it affect the EFI competition? If it works, is there a way to show only the 3 OS option at start up and use your Control key press to prioritize the one I'm mostly using at the time? I also noticed that some people affix specific icons to select between the 3 EFIs...Did you cover that somewhere along? Is that something easy to do? I was wondering if Time Machine will make a backup of the BootCamp- Win10 partition as well as Ventura.... Anyways, thanks so much for your effort.
Hi I'm trying to follow this on my imac mid 2011 running montrey open core I've followed your video several times but I keep getting windows can't be installed on to this disc because it has a MBR partition table how do I remove the MBR partition table TIA
Well, everything worked. After 3 unsuccessful attempts, I find myself with a 2017 MacBook Air that supports Sequoia 15.2, the latest Macos, as well as DualBoot with Bootcamp and an updated Windows 11. Thanks again for your tutorial. I would like to mention that the most difficult part was to maintain the two boots when starting the Mac and it was EFI Opencore Legacy that posed a problem if you followed a classic path that I slightly deviated.
I'd like to thank you, Mr Macintosh, as well as the developers, all of you, for the extraordinary work you've done together, enabling a large neophyte public like me to keep our Macs and fight against the programmed obsolescence that's been imposed on us all.
Exactly the video I'm waiting for If only I saw this earlier lol ended up installing OCLP Monterey on an external USB and leaving Windows in the iMac drive
hello... windows 11 pls.. because i always stuck on partition.. msg error is windows cannot be installed to this disk. on efi systems windows can only be installed to gpt disks already i follow ur step but always that msg i found.. anyway i use mbp 2012.. thanks..
I'm glad the video was helpful in installing Windows 10 on my early 2011 Macbook Pro 8.1. It's always great to have a detailed step-by-step process to follow, and it's even better when you can get some additional input from other people. As for Windows 11, it might be a good idea to wait until I see a reliable guide before attempting to install it. In the meantime, I shall enjoy using Windows 10 on my MacBook Pro! Has anyone been able to successfully install Windows 11 on a MacBook Pro from early 2011? It would be great if you could share your process and any tips, so the rest of us can also install it on our MacBooks. Thank you in advance for sharing your experience.
Have you seen the MBR error before attempting that windows installation screen on bootcamp partition, how did you bypass. Am also attempting it on MacBook Pro 8,1 using latest windows 10 22H2 version.
Hello Sir , I have iMac late 2013, with Monterey 12.6.1 , I follow the video , when the Windows finish copy files , I got error "Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation. To install Windows, restart the installation." any Idea , help with this issue please !!
13:40 I don't have an EFI boot option. I just have the option for my Mac OS and the windows usb stick. Im running Ventura on a 2011 Mac 27". I cannot select EFI boot as it does not show up in the list?
I am running OCLP v0.4.2 on MacBook Pro 5,4 (Mid 2009). It is running great with OS 12.2.1. I tired running Boot Camp but it wouldn't work on this machine. Then I tried these steps on MacBook Pro 8,2 (Early 2011). I followed all steps, but I get the "Windows Can only be installed to GPT disks" (14:50 in your video) How do I fix this issue, I did format in ExFat before and have tried selecting Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro. I get the same error both time.
@@nightrider_1 I am about to. This is my last try. There is a key missing step or two that no one has shown. 2012 unibody 12.x OCLP, windows message re: "GPT disk". :(
I still couldn’t install onto the partition after changing it to exfat on my 2010 27”. Still said Parton was mbr. So I deleted the partition and ended up creating a new container instead and formatted as exfat. Then I was able to format it in windows install and then install.
I tried to install using these instructions from your video. I tried this probably 100 times. On my iMac 2013 everything worked. but on my Macbook Pro 2012 the installation happens too quickly and then a message appears saying that an error has occurred. I download the windows 10 file from the Microsoft website, install it on a USB STICK via Bootcamp, load it via EFI, but at the end there is still an error
Thank you for the vote for windows 11! I have it up and running on a 2013. I need to get the Legacy BIOS install out first then I can move to windows 11 👍
Windows 10 and 11 on a mid-2012 that's installed in GPT will only have internal screen working. If you want external screen through direct miniDP (not thunderbolt dock, doesn't work on Windows, either GPT OR LEGACY), you need to install Windows 10/11 in MBR.
This is so frustrating.... macbookair5,2 oclp working with big sur. Windows 10 uefi will not install saying the drive is in mbr. But it's not. Guid partitioning scheme. Separate 40gb exfat partition. Holding option, booting through opencore. Starting windows 10 install. I don't get it. EDIT: Repartioned in Recovery mode to ex-fat and attempted reinstall of Win 10 in UEFI. It did work, however, with the MacBookAir5,2 when Windows installs the graphics driver for Intel HD 4000 it goes black screen and you can't do anything. Subsequent reboots shows windows loading (spinning circle) then into black screen. Works fine if you just keep Windows basic display driver. time to investigate. For now, I've redone it in legacy but then opencore doesn't see it and you have to hold down option to pick windows.
it worked great on my Macbook Pro i7 16GB 2014 OCL Ventura, but NOT my macbook Air 11" i7 8GB 2013 OCL Sonoma. It installed windows but when it reboots an d loads it shows a error.. I should have checked the error code. I went to my Mac section and reversed my Boot Camp back to the way it was. I will try it again later.
Can you please explain how to do this within Sequoia? I have a 2015 MBP with OCLP 2.2/Sequoia, but BootCamp Assistant do not show the options to create a Windows 10 installer, it just allows to proceed with the installation process. I could re-instal my SSD with Monterey to create the bootable USB, but I do not know if it will work in Sequoia...
Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI system, Windows can only be installed in GPT disks I have macbook pro mid2012 with mac os monetary with OCLP I installed mac os with ur video successfully
New OCLP update Guys today v0.3.2...I just opened it, entered # 1 open Open core.installed it..then picked # 3 i think it was..patch volume,Hit enter, password then enter, installed the patches...then q for quit then reboot to make the patches work...OS 12.1 with OCLP patch update...Thank-you Mr MacIntosh for showing me how to use terminal.
Hello and thank you so much for your videos. I just came here after watching your OCLP Monterey install which I'm going to do first and then I am psyching myself to do this because I am DYING for Windows 10. Even though I like the Mac OS, my main machine is windows 10 pro and I am in big need to run both. Will this work exactly like your instructions for a Macbook Pro Mid 2012 (MacBook Pro 9.2) with a 2.9 GHz i7 processor and 16GB RAM? I do have two SSDs (Samsung EVO as a spare and a Crucial MBX as my main) of 1TB each. I mean should I go by this or the Legacy BIOS video you have out? thank you so much for your response!
Mr. Macintosh i really like your instruction it very clear and easy to follow but I am having a problem on installing windows after I reformatted the bootcamp on exfat inside the monterey. after that I restart and start the windows installation according to your instructions 1 by 1 it is giving me a message that I am not able to install windows on this pc. Macbook pro 15 inches late 2011 successfully installed your patched Monterey OS installation instruction. please give me some idea how to do thanks in advance.
Hi, I was able to enter in the installation of windows, but when the installer start my keyboard and touchpad (mouse) doesn't work and I am stuck. Do you have any idea of what's happening?? I'm using a 8,1 Macbook with Sonoma OCLP.
Hello MrMac. Thank you very much for this amazing and clearly explained video. Well, I am stuck at that point where I have to format the BOOTCAMP partition inside the Win Install routine a second time. This cannot be successfully done since I still have the error on an existing MBR partition instead a GPT one; nevertheless, the DiskUtility still shows the whole Mac Drive is a GPT one. So, What can I do in this case? And: Does it matter that the USB stick has an MBR partition signature? I do not know how to solve they issue. Thank you very much. Kind regards, Roger
I have the same issue. I re-format the BOOTCAMP partition to Ex-Fat, go into the Windows installer, format the BOOTCAMP partition and it still doesn't allow me to install Windows, saying it's MBR not GPT.
@@radekkaderka8472 found the solution in comments. You need to format boot camp partition as macos extended journaled. Then in windows installer delete the partition. Create on deleted new one and you should be able to install windows 😊
Hello! I figured I should let you and perhaps other mac users our there that I tried, installing win on a mac pro 5.1 using this method but it did not work. The windows installers just won't recognize the har drive as "windows ready" no matter what format or partition I tried. Not blaming anyone here, I knew it was a long shot but I wanted to try it. Happy holidays!
Thank you so much. A question, I have just got a 2015 MacBook Pro and updated it to Ventura using OCLP. It was a struggle but I did get there with the help of your videos. So will this work with OCLP Ventura ? Thanks so much.
I have a mac mini 6,2 and its on GPT table but windows 10 installer says. Cant be installed because the drive is MBR but i keep going back to mac and it says GPT. I want to dual boot on the same SSD
The installation process of windows doesnt start on my MacbookPro Mid 2014 (11,3). After the windows logo I see a blank, blue screen without any installation dialogue. How can I fix it?
So someone mentioned this here earlier, this only worked on a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro if you formated the BOOTCAMP partition to MacOS extended Journaled not Exfat and when you get into the Windows Installer delete the partition and create a new one from there installation was a breeze
Thanks. This is what did the trick for my pre-2013 MacBook pro (8,2). Exfat partition was still detected by the windows installer as an mbr partition. My main Macintosh HD is APFS, so maybe some of that container gunk was happening that I was unaware about.
Thanks! The only way Windows 10 setup allowed me to install it on Early-2011 MacBook Pro. Format BOOTCAMP partition to MacOS Extended (journaled) in MacOS, delete this partition in Windows Setup ("Delete" button) and then select "Unallocated space".
For the "2nd section", the OP never shows how he got to disk utility. EFI OCLP into MacOS hangs 10% in, so cannot get to Disk Utility from there. It appears to hang, I only waited a few minutes but there was no increase in the progress bar. And if Cmd+R to boot into recovery mode to get Disk Utility, clicking BOOTCAMP drive and trying to erase to ExFAT gives the following message "Disk Erase failed. Disk Erase failed with the error: The given file system is not supported on Core Storage." (2012 15inch unibody)
@@VladislavBaglai When you did this, in Disk Utility, had MacOS already renamed the bootcamp folder "Untitled" when you formatted it MacOS Extended (Journaled)?
I get to 14:30 last step in "where do you want to install windows" and will not allow me to install in any of the partitions. The message says on any partition "windows cannot be installed on this drive" Any ideas?
Great instruction, thanks alot for this detailed one. Im facing some issues though on my Macbook Pro late 2013. I followed your instruction and it worked fine. But when i press option during start I dont have oclp efi boot anymore. Only Ventura and Windows. If I select Ventura I get a stop sign from apple, after a while it boots into Windows. Then I restart, after Ventura now I have another page with OCLP selector. Possible to set it to boot always into Ventura directly without option button? When i deselect “Show Boot Picker” in OCLP it cant start, only stop sign then. So I need to get my OCLP EFI boot option back? Thx
Hi! I have my Early 2015 MBP 13 inch that already has bootcamp installed through its normal supported Monteray. Can I just use your normal tutorial using OCLP to install Ventura on my MacBook or will it mess up my current bootcamp? What is the best procedure since I already have boot camp installed before OCLP?
Great videos Thanks @Mr.Macintosh One question I have a MacBook Pro (10.2 so end 2012 /early 2013) I have installed Sonoma on it thanks to your great tutorial went smoothly. One question I now want to install a windows 10 (or 11?) dual boot on it. But the age is "in between 2012-2013" so could you let me know which auto and procedure I should follow to do so ? And thanks again because I now have Sonoma too on my 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar just running fine thanks to you. Cheers from France ( you are famous !!!)
Thank you for detail video. best as usual! I have Macbook pro 9.1 2012. I got stuck with : Windows can't be installed on drive ...partition .. ( see detalis) . Definately i followed your instruction very carefully. Please help.
Thank you Van dinh! For your model, you could go either way. Maybe try UEFI first and see if you have any boot or driver issues. If not then you are good to go! For example on my 2012 I had to rename ApleMNT.sys and APpleHFS.sys in safe mode because windows 10 would keep crashing. After the rename the system ran great! If you are still having problems my next video installing via Legacy/BIOS is coming up next!
I have a late 2011 13" MBP which has dual boot for High Sierra and Monterey, is it better to install Windows 10 through bootcamp from High Sierra or from Monterey? EDIT: Bootcamp Assistant on my High Sierra would not work at all, it just crashes after I click "Continue" on the first page. It occurred only after I had partition the disk and installed Monterey in it, so I am guessing it has something to do with that. I'm wondering if adding another SSD (replace CD drive) just for the Monterey will solve that issue?
Cool thing for this way is also that you can use Parallels to access Bootcamp Windows under Mac directly as well without restarting. But one question, how to start the mac in recovery mode with OCLP? Tried so many times, never could make it on the correct timing it seems. The Bootcamp Partition will not show up in "Startup Disk" app?
Thank you for showing me this video before I had to install windows 10 from DVDs due to the fact that the USB will not work it would say the partition does not exist thank you! 🙏
Concerning your hard work Mr. Macintosh, I just successfully Installed Monterey on my 27, iMac 2010 manually changed CPU from i3 to i7 870, with no Metal Suppor video card by using some of your excellent video tutorials. Before that having dual boot by holding opt. key High Sierra and Manjaro. Is there anyhow to do that again. Best regards G.
Thanks for the videos Mr. McIntosh! New to the community because no support now for iMac 17,1. Question: with UEFI and Dual Boot OCLP… Can you still use System Preferences within a Mac and select the Start Up Disk to go into Boot Camp, without pressing anything on the keyboard…And likewise on the Windows side using Boot Camp in the bottom right and selecting the Start Up Disk to go back to macOS? Or is the only way to switch operating systems is by holding down Option when rebooting?
Thanks! I'm having an issue where my USB2.0 16GB flash drives aren't showing up in Bootcamp Assistant as a destination to create the install disk. I tried using disk utility to erase as exFAT and FAT with MBR. Only my Samsung T5 SSD shows up as an option, but that's my Macintosh HD! Running OCLP on a 2012 Macmini6,2 Edit: I'm running macOS from an external SSD (and trying to install Bootcamp to another external SSD) possibly that has something to do with it.
Hi, Thanks for these kind of videos and with the help of these, i've successfully installed OCLP ventura on 2015. This guide is for windows 10, so is there guide for windows 11 with OCLP ventura and bootcamp or i heard about tiny 11 (strip version of windows 11) install along side with OCLP ventura on 2015 15"?
Hallo Mr Macintosh.. in ur step 14:27.. i am still trouble cannot recreate partition windows.. btw iam use mbp 2012 and try install windows 11.. any solution.. thanks..
My Mac Mini 2014 has Sonoma installed through OCLP. I was following these instructions and it turns out I had to format the drive to NTFS which is meant for Windows 10 with MS Command Prompt. I did it by pressing Shift+f10 while installing Windows 10.
Hello, I try to do it in My iMac late 2013 catalina follow all and in the end give error Windows setup error -- Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation .To install Windos ,restart the installation ... any idea thanks
Hello, My windows keeps on crashing during the finalisation process. iMac mid 2011. New hard disk. Running on sonoma. Repairs and keeps crashing on blue screen. Mouse and keyboard attached on USB ports. What could be the cause? Thanks.
The 2012 Macs seem to be very troublesome based on the comments The main issues are: 1.Blue Screen after installation when booting into windows 2. The format issue thing I have found what I think is a fix for problem number 2, which is by deleting the partition and manually adding the partition back and then formatting it as exfact/msdos. I can't seem to fix problem number one that is blue screen
Thanks! OMG look i have a mid 2012 macbook pro retina and i have the formatting problem. I did the formatting to ex fat in macos and then formatting in windows installer but it still won't work.
I want to try your fix but how? Do i erase the partition in window indtaler or back in macos? If its not to much to ask could you tell me how to delete and manually add the partition?
on my late 2015 iMac it does not show the option to create a bootable USB drive. It does however show up on the mid 2012 MacBook Pro of a friend so could I use his boot camp to create my bootable USB drive? I am worried about the support software as it is from the wrong machine then
We are eager to see your video on how to install Windows 11 on unsupported devices (e.g., Mac mini 6,2) along with macOS Monterey. When I install Windows 11 via Boot Camp, I am not able to format the target disk within the Windows 11 installation process:
hello, good evening, I'm trying to install windows 10 on a macbook pro mid 2012 with open core legacy patcher in monterey, but when creating the partition and starting the installation it doesn't give me the option to choose the bootcamp disk, I did the process of reformatting it in exfat again but it still doesn't work for me
Hello Mr. Macintosh. Thank you for making all of these videos. They are very helpful. I am having problems with this procedure. I have a 2012 13" MacBook Pro with MacOS Monterey 12.2.1 installed with OCLP 0.4.2. When I get to the part with the BootCamp building the USB drive, it copies the Windows 10 ISO, but it cannot download the drivers. I get the error "Can't download the software because of a network problem". My internet access is fine. I even reinstalled MacOS Catalina, which is Apple supported, and the BootCamp process works fine. Did you run into this issue? Any ideas?
I had that problem with a usb stick interference. Load bootcamp & go "action - > download windows support files" & just install it manually after installing Windows. Or you could try ethernet cable. Also a usb 2.0 seemed to resolve the problem (when over wifi) albeit a bit slower processing.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I tried to do this on a 2009 5.1 mac pro, After 4 days of trying all sorts of different paths, I got it to work....BUT...I was installing windows on a separate disk drive. It worked until it did not, and from then onwards I could not get it to work. Can I use your method to install windows in a different HD?
Alvaro, You could give that a shot but keep in mind i did not test this on a Mac Pro. The Mac Pro is usually the hardest to get working with OCLP macOS and Windows. You might want to try a Legacy BIOS install with a windows 10 dvd. This is what I will be showing in my next video.
@@Mr.Macintosh I will give it a try and let you know!. Since I will be using a separate disk to install windows, if it goes wrong I won't loose Big Sur which is running via OCLP in a different disk drive. Thank you very much for your help and l look forward to seeing your next video. I am trying to learn Unreal Engine and mac simply won't play ball so I need a PC, and a mac for everything else :)
Hello @floydian4evr to be safe, I would create a 2nd USB installer with a supported version of macOS just in case something goes wrong. Also be sure to backup your data first
Thanks for the video, but i can pass trough the message “Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can be only installed to GPT disks” any ideas on how to proceed? tks
Someone has done this process in Macbook air mid 2011 is that it always stays at the Windows 10 logo and it doesn't happen from there it's time to force it off.
Thank you for this tutorial, Mr. Macintosh. I followed your instructions very precisely but I get a BSOD, System Service Exception, win32kfull.sys when Windows starts to install (just after the five dots start circling). I am trying to install Windows 10 UEFI on my iMac 15,1 running Monterey that was installed with OCLP v0.5.2. Specifically, I am trying to install Win10_22H2_x64.iso. I am using Boot Camp Assistant v6.1.0. It reports that it downloaded version 6136 of the Boot Camp Windows support software version 6136. Do you have any idea what may have gone wrong? Does Boot Camp Windows support software version 6136 sound like the correct version for Windows 10 on an iMac 15,1? Thank you.
hello Mr. Macintosh, Even I followed step by step, I'm always having the same issue, MacBook Pro 2012 unibody, On reboot, same error message overtimes, it's giving me an info as there is an MBR partition, but none appearing when I am into disk utility, any idea ?
been trying to do this on my 2010 Mac Pro 5.1 using usb drive, keep on hitting the wall " can't install on this partition, need gpt" went back to mac, changed reformat the partition to guid, went to windows install , reformat and keep on failing the installation, any advise? or can u make a video just for mac pro 5.1? thanx!!
i have a macbook pro from 2011 trying to install windows in it but mine installation fails at "Finishing Up". And Error is "WINDOWS WAS UNABLE TO BOOT YOUR COMPUTER INTO NEXT STAGE".. please help
@Mr.Macintosh ... Hello Sir, I have a Mac Pro 5.1 running Monterey with OCLP...running on NVMe SSD and a second NVMe ssd I wanna install windows..is UEFI the way forward here?
What about if i already windows 11 installed (on a sata drive) and want to install macos Sonoma (or upgrade my macos ventura that it i on a different drive, a name)? I have an Imac 2017 5k...
Hi, Macbook Pro 2010 here, Swaped the dvd carry for another drive(Windows is NOT UEFI, due to videodrivers not working), so its Legacy. if i install OCLP, On the main drive, is it possible to (alt button) boot to windows? Will the Boot menu recognice the second drive? Thx In Advanced
I am using my macbook 2012 closed lid and I have installed windows with bootcamp and I have monterey with OCLP When I restart that I choose start disk windows it open macos again, I dont want to click alt button for boot screen, is there any way for change macos to windows?
I watched your windows 10 UEFI/EFI and GPT video with Bootcamp but I have a problem. When I start "Option-alt" and press "Open core efi boot", Mac os opens directly. How do I install it?
Hello sir, can I ever be able to install windows 10 on my late 2010 MacBook Pro with bootcamp? if you have any Video that I can watch and install it, kindly direct me sir. Am grateful for your attention.
Thanks for doing my recommendation! ;) Though one thing: this works on my 2010 iMac so maybe change it to be 2010-2015 Edit: also on my 2010 computer, I did UEFI without OCLP, and the only problem I found was the screen wouldn’t turn on from sleep if the HDD fans were already on. This apparently was a driver issue, and unrelated to UEFI I believe
I also installed windows 11 on my 2008 Macbook4,1 by firstly getting win 7, then upgrading to win 10, then editing a DLL so that I bypass the TPM and UEFI secureboot requirements. I got BSODs within 30 seconds of login, so you have to go into the drivers folder under System32 and rename MacHalDriver.sys to a .bak file. Then I stopped getting BSODs. Dunno if this is required for every Mac model, just a quick note.
Hello ThatOneMaccGamer! sorry this took so long, I had nothing but problems trying to get all this to work. I had problems getting it work via UEFI on a 2010 so I left it off. Hmm maybe I could add your notes? It just might be tough for some viewers trying to figure out all the issues. I'm glad you got it working though!!!! PS thanks for letting me know about the windows 11 info.

Through troubleshooting with the other MBP I realized it is Monterey. I reverted to Big Sur, hoping this will be be adressed by the community.
It did says it won't install after I formet it's says more crap.. it did workout for me
Thank you! Way more straightforward than trying to follow the instructions on the OCLP page. Glad I held off attempting the install until now.
Thank you very much Greg! Let me know how the install goes 👍
@@Mr.Macintosh Yep, no go… 2012 MBP 10,1… Got all the way installed then reboot for first boot and BSOD with igdkmd64.sys then after that just a generic error and same BSOD. Tried to get into safe mode but no dice either just keeps crashing at same point.
@@k0ns0le78 I had that same issue on my 2012 9,1. I fixed it by using a DVD image of Windows 10 downloaded by the Creatinstallmedia executable on another windows machine, then just popped the disc into my Mac and it actually worked. You have a retina without the disc drive tho so you'd have to get an external one.
Just to clarify, all Macs with a GeForce 330M will have issues with UEFI windows due to driver stuff. Works fine in legacy BIOS though.
Thank you Martin! I will put that in the updates section 👍
also hd3000 too i believe, thats at least the case for me
Any problems on iMac 12,2 with an GTX780M? 🤔
Man, your video added value and it really worked with the second solution to format the disk in exFAT format. Thank you very much, and a big hug!
This is VERY helpful! Moreover, you recorded it on my birthday!
thank you Mr. Macintosh this was a life savior ; I was able to insall w10 on my macbook pro late 2011 , so thank you keep up the good work we appciate this content
Thank you Amir!!! 👍
Worked for me on a 2014 Macbook Pro. I added a 2TB NVMe drive, and now have Windows 10 and Ventura as boot options (1TB each). Great job, thank you for the tutorial. Will you be doing a Windows 11 tutorial?
Thanks so much to you and to Dortania. I was happily running OS 12.4 and the machine, MBP late 2013, started nagging to update to 12.5.1. Decisions. Decisions. Last time I did an OS change it took me all day fix it! I download the latest OpenCore-legacy and ran the build. Gritted my teeth and did it. All went well and my Bootcamp still works as well. AM A Zing.
Mr Macintosh, you rock !!! I successfully installed OCLP EFI, Ventura and Windows 10 on my mid 2015 MacBook AIr. I was using the same OCLP that I created for my iMac and that kept crashing windows installation. I thought it was the format GPT or NTFS... NO it was the fact that each OCLP is tailored to the machine it is installing on. So I just dumped the Win10 iso in the download and installed it straight from there to my BootCamp partition, skipping the unneeded USB Boot creation. It's NOT required!. Now I want to install Linux Mint 21.2 and perhaps switch to windows 11 if it's legal, worthy and as straightforward as Windows 10...But BootCamp wont let me shrink the partition it created for Windows. The only option it gives me is to delete to restore that space to Ventura. Can I just use the disk management within Windows 10 to shrink the partition and then install linux into that freed up space? How will it affect the EFI competition? If it works, is there a way to show only the 3 OS option at start up and use your Control key press to prioritize the one I'm mostly using at the time? I also noticed that some people affix specific icons to select between the 3 EFIs...Did you cover that somewhere along? Is that something easy to do? I was wondering if Time Machine will make a backup of the BootCamp- Win10 partition as well as Ventura.... Anyways, thanks so much for your effort.
Needles to say........ "Mr. Macintosh, Simply the Best". Thanks for another great video. 👏👏👏
Thank you very much Julio!!!! 👍
By the way, we appreciate your hard work, detailed instructions, and polished videos to help us in the global community.
Hi I'm trying to follow this on my imac mid 2011 running montrey open core I've followed your video several times but I keep getting windows can't be installed on to this disc because it has a MBR partition table how do I remove the MBR partition table TIA
Same here
Hi, have you got a solutşon? I ve got sane problem too
Really appreciate your work and efforts, thanks a lot. Do you plan making a tutorial on how to install windows 11?
Well, everything worked. After 3 unsuccessful attempts, I find myself with a 2017 MacBook Air that supports Sequoia 15.2, the latest Macos, as well as DualBoot with Bootcamp and an updated Windows 11. Thanks again for your tutorial.
I would like to mention that the most difficult part was to maintain the two boots when starting the Mac and it was EFI Opencore Legacy that posed a problem if you followed a classic path that I slightly deviated.
I'd like to thank you, Mr Macintosh, as well as the developers, all of you, for the extraordinary work you've done together, enabling a large neophyte public like me to keep our Macs and fight against the programmed obsolescence that's been imposed on us all.
Hi vpitch71, wich one was your slight deviation?
Exactly the video I'm waiting for
If only I saw this earlier lol ended up installing OCLP Monterey on an external USB and leaving Windows in the iMac drive
Sorry that this video took so long! I ran across so many issues. I also wanted to show viewers the easiest way to install 👍

I'm glad the video was helpful in installing Windows 10 on my early 2011 Macbook Pro 8.1. It's always great to have a detailed step-by-step process to follow, and it's even better when you can get some additional input from other people. As for Windows 11, it might be a good idea to wait until I see a reliable guide before attempting to install it. In the meantime, I shall enjoy using Windows 10 on my MacBook Pro! Has anyone been able to successfully install Windows 11 on a MacBook Pro from early 2011? It would be great if you could share your process and any tips, so the rest of us can also install it on our MacBooks. Thank you in advance for sharing your experience.

I am running OCLP v0.4.2 on MacBook Pro 5,4 (Mid 2009). It is running great with OS 12.2.1. I tired running Boot Camp but it wouldn't work on this machine. Then I tried these steps on MacBook Pro 8,2 (Early 2011). I followed all steps, but I get the "Windows Can only be installed to GPT disks" (14:50 in your video) How do I fix this issue, I did format in ExFat before and have tried selecting Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro.

hello explain me a little the procedure since I have the same problem
Well your pc is just not compatible.
I tried to install using these instructions from your video. I tried this probably 100 times. On my iMac 2013 everything worked. but on my Macbook Pro 2012 the installation happens too quickly and then a message appears saying that an error has occurred. I download the windows 10 file from the Microsoft website, install it on a USB STICK via Bootcamp, load it via EFI, but at the end there is still an error
Windows 11 please. I have Macbook 9,2 (Mid-2012 Macbook Pro 15") The Intel HD 4000 driver doesn't work. Please make a video on it.
Thank you for the vote for windows 11! I have it up and running on a 2013. I need to get the Legacy BIOS install out first then I can move to windows 11 👍
@@Mr.Macintosh can u make a full video on this please
Windows 10 and 11 on a mid-2012 that's installed in GPT will only have internal screen working. If you want external screen through direct miniDP (not thunderbolt dock, doesn't work on Windows, either GPT OR LEGACY), you need to install Windows 10/11 in MBR.
This is so frustrating.... macbookair5,2 oclp working with big sur. Windows 10 uefi will not install saying the drive is in mbr. But it's not. Guid partitioning scheme. Separate 40gb exfat partition. Holding option, booting through opencore. Starting windows 10 install. I don't get it. EDIT: Repartioned in Recovery mode to ex-fat and attempted reinstall of Win 10 in UEFI. It did work, however, with the MacBookAir5,2 when Windows installs the graphics driver for Intel HD 4000 it goes black screen and you can't do anything. Subsequent reboots shows windows loading (spinning circle) then into black screen. Works fine if you just keep Windows basic display driver. time to investigate. For now, I've redone it in legacy but then opencore doesn't see it and you have to hold down option to pick windows.
it worked great on my Macbook Pro i7 16GB 2014 OCL Ventura, but NOT my macbook Air 11" i7 8GB 2013 OCL Sonoma. It installed windows but when it reboots an d loads it shows a error.. I should have checked the error code. I went to my Mac section and reversed my Boot Camp back to the way it was. I will try it again later.
Can you please explain how to do this within Sequoia? I have a 2015 MBP with OCLP 2.2/Sequoia, but BootCamp Assistant do not show the options to create a Windows 10 installer, it just allows to proceed with the installation process. I could re-instal my SSD with Monterey to create the bootable USB, but I do not know if it will work in Sequoia...
Great guide with everything explained. Now, how to add Linux to the dual boot system? :-)
Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI system, Windows can only be installed in GPT disks

Hello and thank you so much for your videos. I just came here after watching your OCLP Monterey install which I'm going to do first and then I am psyching myself to do this because I am DYING for Windows 10. Even though I like the Mac OS, my main machine is windows 10 pro and I am in big need to run both. Will this work exactly like your instructions for a Macbook Pro Mid 2012 (MacBook Pro 9.2) with a 2.9 GHz i7 processor and 16GB RAM? I do have two SSDs (Samsung EVO as a spare and a Crucial MBX as my main) of 1TB each. I mean should I go by this or the Legacy BIOS video you have out?
thank you so much for your response!
Mr. Macintosh i really like your instruction it very clear and easy to follow but I am having a problem on installing windows after I reformatted the bootcamp on exfat inside the monterey. after that I restart and start the windows installation according to your instructions 1 by 1 it is giving me a message that I am not able to install windows on this pc.

Hi, I was able to enter in the installation of windows, but when the installer start my keyboard and touchpad (mouse) doesn't work and I am stuck. Do you have any idea of what's happening?? I'm using a 8,1 Macbook with Sonoma OCLP.
Finally.. Worked .. I bricked my device two times by booting into Stock boot picker😄
Hello MrMac. Thank you very much for this amazing and clearly explained video. Well, I am stuck at that point where I have to format the BOOTCAMP partition inside the Win Install routine a second time. This cannot be successfully done since I still have the error on an existing MBR partition instead a GPT one; nevertheless, the DiskUtility still shows the whole Mac Drive is a GPT one. So, What can I do in this case? And: Does it matter that the USB stick has an MBR partition signature? I do not know how to solve they issue. Thank you very much. Kind regards, Roger
Ooh, forgot to mention that I tried to setup on a Mid2012 MacBookPro, V 9,2.
I have the same issue. I re-format the BOOTCAMP partition to Ex-Fat, go into the Windows installer, format the BOOTCAMP partition and it still doesn't allow me to install Windows, saying it's MBR not GPT.
@@radekkaderka8472 I have this problem too on my mac from mid 2011. Have you solved it already?
@@MariuszKraus Still nothing
@@radekkaderka8472 found the solution in comments. You need to format boot camp partition as macos extended journaled. Then in windows installer delete the partition. Create on deleted new one and you should be able to install windows 😊
Hello! I figured I should let you and perhaps other mac users our there that I tried, installing win on a mac pro 5.1 using this method but it did not work. The windows installers just won't recognize the har drive as "windows ready" no matter what format or partition I tried. Not blaming anyone here, I knew it was a long shot but I wanted to try it. Happy holidays!
Same on my 5,1 says it is MBR even though I formatted it like he said to.
Getting an error of Windows installation can not go to next phase of installation .
Any solution for that?
Thank you so much. A question, I have just got a 2015 MacBook Pro and updated it to Ventura using OCLP. It was a struggle but I did get there with the help of your videos. So will this work with OCLP Ventura ? Thanks so much.
I have a mac mini 6,2 and its on GPT table but windows 10 installer says. Cant be installed because the drive is MBR but i keep going back to mac and it says GPT. I want to dual boot on the same SSD
The installation process of windows doesnt start on my MacbookPro Mid 2014 (11,3). After the windows logo I see a blank, blue screen without any installation dialogue. How can I fix it?
8:00 unfortunately I don’t even get that far. Boot Camp Assistant just stops being „unable to download drivers“ (iMac 11,2, Monteray OCLP 1.4.3) 😢
So someone mentioned this here earlier, this only worked on a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro if you formated the BOOTCAMP partition to MacOS extended Journaled not Exfat and when you get into the Windows Installer delete the partition and create a new one from there installation was a breeze
Thanks. This is what did the trick for my pre-2013 MacBook pro (8,2). Exfat partition was still detected by the windows installer as an mbr partition. My main Macintosh HD is APFS, so maybe some of that container gunk was happening that I was unaware about.
Thanks! The only way Windows 10 setup allowed me to install it on Early-2011 MacBook Pro. Format BOOTCAMP partition to MacOS Extended (journaled) in MacOS, delete this partition in Windows Setup ("Delete" button) and then select "Unallocated space".
For the "2nd section", the OP never shows how he got to disk utility. EFI OCLP into MacOS hangs 10% in, so cannot get to Disk Utility from there. It appears to hang, I only waited a few minutes but there was no increase in the progress bar. And if Cmd+R to boot into recovery mode to get Disk Utility, clicking BOOTCAMP drive and trying to erase to ExFAT gives the following message "Disk Erase failed. Disk Erase failed with the error: The given file system is not supported on Core Storage." (2012 15inch unibody)
@@VladislavBaglai When you did this, in Disk Utility, had MacOS already renamed the bootcamp folder "Untitled" when you formatted it MacOS Extended (Journaled)?

I get to 14:30 last step in "where do you want to install windows" and will not allow me to install in any of the partitions. The message says on any partition "windows cannot be installed on this drive" Any ideas?
Great instruction, thanks alot for this detailed one. Im facing some issues though on my Macbook Pro late 2013. I followed your instruction and it worked fine. But when i press option during start I dont have oclp efi boot anymore. Only Ventura and Windows. If I select Ventura I get a stop sign from apple, after a while it boots into Windows. Then I restart, after Ventura now I have another page with OCLP selector. Possible to set it to boot always into Ventura directly without option button? When i deselect “Show Boot Picker” in OCLP it cant start, only stop sign then. So I need to get my OCLP EFI boot option back? Thx
will you upload a W11 video?, . . please?!!
Hi! I have my Early 2015 MBP 13 inch that already has bootcamp installed through its normal supported Monteray. Can I just use your normal tutorial using OCLP to install Ventura on my MacBook or will it mess up my current bootcamp? What is the best procedure since I already have boot camp installed before OCLP?
Great videos Thanks @Mr.Macintosh
One question I have a MacBook Pro (10.2 so end 2012 /early 2013) I have installed Sonoma on it thanks to your great tutorial went smoothly. One question I now want to install a windows 10 (or 11?) dual boot on it. But the age is "in between 2012-2013" so could you let me know which auto and procedure I should follow to do so ? And thanks again because I now have Sonoma too on my 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar just running fine thanks to you. Cheers from France ( you are famous !!!)

Thank you for detail video. best as usual! I have Macbook pro 9.1 2012. I got stuck with : Windows can't be installed on drive ...partition .. ( see detalis) . Definately i followed your instruction very carefully. Please help.
Thank you Van dinh! For your model, you could go either way. Maybe try UEFI first and see if you have any boot or driver issues. If not then you are good to go! For example on my 2012 I had to rename ApleMNT.sys and APpleHFS.sys in safe mode because windows 10 would keep crashing. After the rename the system ran great! If you are still having problems my next video installing via Legacy/BIOS is coming up next!

I’m stuck there keep saying I have a mbr
I have a late 2011 13" MBP which has dual boot for High Sierra and Monterey, is it better to install Windows 10 through bootcamp from High Sierra or from Monterey?
EDIT: Bootcamp Assistant on my High Sierra would not work at all, it just crashes after I click "Continue" on the first page. It occurred only after I had partition the disk and installed Monterey in it, so I am guessing it has something to do with that. I'm wondering if adding another SSD (replace CD drive) just for the Monterey will solve that issue?
Will you please do a video strictly for macbook pro 2011 .. thanks
Cool thing for this way is also that you can use Parallels to access Bootcamp Windows under Mac directly as well without restarting. But one question, how to start the mac in recovery mode with OCLP? Tried so many times, never could make it on the correct timing it seems. The Bootcamp Partition will not show up in "Startup Disk" app?
Thank you for showing me this video before I had to install windows 10 from DVDs due to the fact that the USB will not work it would say the partition does not exist thank you! 🙏
Concerning your hard work Mr. Macintosh, I just successfully Installed Monterey on my 27, iMac 2010 manually changed CPU from i3 to i7 870, with no Metal Suppor video card by using some of your excellent video tutorials.

Question: with UEFI and Dual Boot OCLP… Can you still use System Preferences within a Mac and select the Start Up Disk to go into Boot Camp, without pressing anything on the keyboard…And likewise on the Windows side using Boot Camp in the bottom right and selecting the Start Up Disk to go back to macOS?
Or is the only way to switch operating systems is by holding down Option when rebooting?
The OCLP boot loader always shows up by default
Thanks! I'm having an issue where my USB2.0 16GB flash drives aren't showing up in Bootcamp Assistant as a destination to create the install disk. I tried using disk utility to erase as exFAT and FAT with MBR. Only my Samsung T5 SSD shows up as an option, but that's my Macintosh HD! Running OCLP on a 2012 Macmini6,2
Edit: I'm running macOS from an external SSD (and trying to install Bootcamp to another external SSD) possibly that has something to do with it.

The 2012 Macs seem to be very troublesome based on the comments
The main issues are:
1.Blue Screen after installation when booting into windows
2. The format issue thing
I have found what I think is a fix for problem number 2, which is by deleting the partition and manually adding the partition back and then formatting it as exfact/msdos.

I have a 2012 13" MacBook Pro with MacOS Monterey 12.2.1 installed with OCLP 0.4.2. When I get to the part with the BootCamp building the USB drive, it copies the Windows 10 ISO, but it cannot download the drivers. I get the error "Can't download the software because of a network problem". My internet access is fine. I even reinstalled MacOS Catalina, which is Apple supported, and the BootCamp process works fine. Did you run into this issue? Any ideas?
I had that problem with a usb stick interference. Load bootcamp & go "action - > download windows support files" & just install it manually after installing Windows.
Or you could try ethernet cable. Also a usb 2.0 seemed to resolve the problem (when over wifi) albeit a bit slower processing.

Alvaro, You could give that a shot but keep in mind i did not test this on a Mac Pro. The Mac Pro is usually the hardest to get working with OCLP macOS and Windows. You might want to try a Legacy BIOS install with a windows 10 dvd. This is what I will be showing in my next video.

I watched your windows 10 UEFI/EFI and GPT video with Bootcamp but I have a problem.
When I start "Option-alt" and press "Open core efi boot", Mac os opens directly.
How do I install it?

Hello sir, can I ever be able to install windows 10 on my late 2010 MacBook Pro with bootcamp? if you have any Video that I can watch and install it, kindly direct me sir. Am grateful for your attention.
Thanks for doing my recommendation! ;)
Though one thing: this works on my 2010 iMac so maybe change it to be 2010-2015
Edit: also on my 2010 computer, I did UEFI without OCLP, and the only problem I found was the screen wouldn’t turn on from sleep if the HDD fans were already on. This apparently was a driver issue, and unrelated to UEFI I believe
I also installed windows 11 on my 2008 Macbook4,1 by firstly getting win 7, then upgrading to win 10, then editing a DLL so that I bypass the TPM and UEFI secureboot requirements. I got BSODs within 30 seconds of login, so you have to go into the drivers folder under System32 and rename MacHalDriver.sys to a .bak file. Then I stopped getting BSODs. Dunno if this is required for every Mac model, just a quick note.
Hello ThatOneMaccGamer! sorry this took so long, I had nothing but problems trying to get all this to work. I had problems getting it work via UEFI on a 2010 so I left it off. Hmm maybe I could add your notes? It just might be tough for some viewers trying to figure out all the issues. I'm glad you got it working though!!!! PS thanks for letting me know about the windows 11 info.
Glad to help ;)
