Apple today released Bootcamp 1.3. The changes include:
Apple Remote pairing
Updated graphics drivers
Improved Boot Camp driver installer
Improved international keyboard support
Localization fixes
Updated Windows Help for Boot Camp
Those lucky to have the brand new MacBook Pro also have an extra update just for them. The keyboard backlighting will now work in Windows or whatever OS you boot in.
Apple has released Boot Camp 1.2 beta, the latest release of the company’s software that enables Intel-based Macs to run Windows XP and Vista. Changes in this release include: support for Windows Vista (32-bit); updated drivers, including but not limited to trackpad, AppleTime (synch), audio, graphics, modem, iSight camera; support the Apple Remote (works with iTunes and Windows Media Player): a Windows system tray icon for easy access to Boot Camp information and actions; improved keyboard support for Korean, Chinese, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Russian, and French Canadian; improved Windows driver installation experience; updated documentation and Boot Camp on-line help in Windows; and Apple Software Update (for Windows XP and Vista).
Apple has posted a new version of Boot Camp. The following improvements are listed but are similar to the updates from Boot Camp 1.1:
Support for the latest Intel-based Macintosh computers, Easier partitioning using presets for popular sizes, Ability to install Windows XP on any internal disk, Support for built-in iSight cameras, Support for built-in microphones, Right-click when pressing the right-hand Apple key on Apple keyboards, Improved Apple keyboard support including Delete, PrintScreen, NumLock, and ScrollLock keys.
Apple today quietly released an update to Bootcamp. The update brings Bootcamp up to v1.1 but still remains beta (a final version will be included in Leopard next Spring). Boot Camp 1.1 contains many updates and is intended for all new and previous Boot Camp beta users.
New features and updates include:
Support for the latest Intel-based Macintosh computers, easier partitioning using presets for popular sizes, ability to install Windows XP on any internal disk, iSight camera support, support for built-in microphones, right-click when pressing Apple key on Apple keyboards and improved Apple keyboard support including Delete, PrintScreen, NumLock and ScrollLock.
It can be downloaded straight from Apple and weighs in at a hefty 220MB. I personally haven’t tried out Bootcamp since I’m an avid Parallels Desktop user, but I may be willing to give it a go now as they made the iSight work! Let us know how the new update works for you.
