    Anyone tried it yet? I am wondering whether bootcamp 5.1 drivers will work.

    at least it runs perfectly in parallels desktop 10, drivers installed flawlessly.
    I suggest it works even with bootcamp as it's mostly compatible with windows8/8.1 for the moment

    I just got it running on a MacBook Pro 3.1 2007 without using bootcamp to partition the drives and doing the drivers for 5.1. My Mac only supports Win 7 x86 from a DVD with no EFI added to the iso authoring. I burnt a simple iso with only winpe and booted it, then added a USB with \sources\install.wim etc and installed like normal 10x64. I will add i did he same trick to get 8.1 x64 with the 5.1 drivers and even on my old Mac everything seems to work. Just enable the bluetooth etc on the mac side first.
