1. I know some of you are wondering: “why?” Why would I install Windows 10,
   Jeff? The answer to that question will come in the future, but I had to
   finish this tutorial first :)

   • 9to5Mac I have a windows 10 class and have to use it, that’s a good reason!

   • The reason is simple, macOS can’t do everything.

2. Need this for my engineering class programs

3. I’ve already done this awhile ago, I just wanted to come here to like and
   support the video and channel.

   • +Eliseo Rocha that is much appreciated hombre.

4. Is it different for older generations of MacBooks? Like will I need a USB
   or external hard drive to install Windows.

   • +Isaiah PEz Thanks man.

   • What about early 2008 MacBook?

   • what about a late 2008 macbook?

   • MarleyG27 As long as it’s a Intel MacBook, you should do it with the same
     way.

   • Every MacBook is Intel. Apple’s PowerPC laptops were called iBook and
     PowerBook.

5. Is boot camp the best option to get mac running windows 10?

   • Yes and no. If you’re gaming or doing anything graphically or
     processor-intensive, then Yes, Boot Camp is definitely the way to go. If
     you’re just doing mundane things on Windows that don’t require lots of
     resources, you may be better off using a VM like Parallels or VMWare Fusion.

   • 9to5Mac Jeff can you also make a video on Parallel or VMware ?

   • 9to5Mac and Jeff what all are the limitations of using Windows on a Mac ?

6. The USB requirement/non-requirement details are explained here;

7. great video! I have a transcend expansion card and was wondering if there
   was any way i can apply bootcamp onto it as I have < than 5gb on my macbook hd

8. did you encounter speaker problems after installing windows?

   • You might need to update the drivers that installed by default. Apple still
     has old keyboard and trackpad drivers in on the iMac version. I had to
     install the drivers, install an update to the bootcamp manager assistant
     thingy, then update the drivers to the Magic 2 devices, then update them to
     the latest release. Kinda shoddy of Apple but make sure everything is
     updated and you should be good to go.

   • If the OS isn’t updated on a new Macbook Pro it could blow your speakers if
     you install windows with bootcamp apparently. Lots of talk about it all
     around and that it was apparently fixed but I don’t recall the details. So,
     you should doublecheck

9. Been a big fan of Jeff from iDownloadBlog. Just giving out positive love
   here. Something the world needs right now! Great video nonetheless, as
   always!

11. Even though I have no use for it, I installed Windows 10 as a To Go version
    on an external SSD. I don’t really want to use any of my internal storage
    for Windows.
