Bootcamp El Capitan
Bootcamp El Capitan Download
I upgraded Yosemite to El Capitan and had an exisiting bootcamp with Windows 8.1. I upgraded 8.1 to 10 and installed the existing apple drivers and it worked fine. I could not upgrade to the final Win 10 so I thought I could just erase it and start again.
- Here is the post, with all the steps he gave me: Boot Camp does not boot after disk cloning But last week I updated from Yosemite to El Capitan directly from Mac App Store, and now I have the same problem again: Windows partition is still there, but it doesn't appear when I press ALT when booting.

- I stupidly got a virus on the W7 I had, since 2012!, and I wanted to update to El Capitan and re-install for W10 through BootCamp. Every time I try to run Bootcamp it tells me it can't detect an install disk. I have ISOs of W7/W8/W10 on my desktop. None work when independently sitting on the Desktop.
This article explains how to install Windows 10 on an old MacBook running El Capitan. Apple made sure to make our lives difficult but installation is still doable.
Bootcamp El Capitan
Download the Windows 10 .iso file from your preferred location (MSDN, torrentz etc) and place the .iso file on the desktop.
Insert a USB drive in one of the Mac’s ports. This USB drive will be formatted so make sure that all its contents are backed up.
Launch the Disk Utility, select the USB drive from the list, then press Erase on the top of the window and make sure MS-DOS (FAT) format is selected. Then click Erase button to start the process.
Once formatting is complete, launch Boot Camp assistant and click Continue. Make sure all three options are selected as per below screenshot.
If the first option “Create a Windows 7 or later version install disk” is missing, please follow the article of the link to make it appears before continuing the process on this article.
Then click Continue again. If the .iso file is placed on the Desktop and the USB drive is FAT formatted, Boot Camp Assistant will automatically detect them as per screenshot below.
Click Continue again to manage the size of the Windows partition and then the installation process will initiate!
