Hey Guys,
I have vista installed on the macbook now, and the issue i have is with the sound driver, a driver gets installed, recognized, but...the speakers dont work...when you go to the sound icon, it says there is no sound device installed...
any idea where i can get the default mac drivers for windows ?
Thanks !
 
If you can't run the BootCamp Assistant (I think it has been deactivated) you can still retrieve the drivers by right clicking on the BC Assistant Icon and then going to "Show Package Contents". In there is a folder a few hundred megs in size, those are the drivers.
 
Hmm.. might be a Vista incompatibility? Mine worked fine in XP. I have no desire to switch to Vista, but that's getting off topic.
 
isight works in vista fine here...I noticed the drivers reinstalled for me on my next reboot after initial install/reboot though, which was weird.

compguy, what does device manager look like?

 
well, got the sound working
ill try to show you a screenshot i a sec...there is no print screen button on this thing
so gotta use imageshack.
it basically has !!!! allover it in a way, but some things are recognized as apple

Judging by your screenshot you quite obviously didn't "get all the drivers."

What version of OS X are you using and how did you install the drivers?
 
if I remember right, the last beta of boot camp does not have all the drives for vista, but if you know someone that has a leopard install dvd it does have all the drivers for vista.
