Sorry for the long post but here goes... Well I finally did the deed - got W7HP on my iMac late 2009. The biggest problem was the fact the version of BC was 3.0 and very few of the drivers worked with W7. I tried to download the 3.1 update from apple several times prior to starting this task but I always got the 3.2 update not the 3.1 update (version I have with this iMac is 3.0). Having the ATI drivers loaded to a thumb drive worked well since the screen didn't go black for long periods of time.
Once W7 came up and I got my network working, I ran Apple Update and it pulled down the 3.1 version of boot camp. Doing this with no Narrator was a pain since my help had to come in and check on things until after it all installed. Narrator, once started did not speak the warning screens asking if you want this program to update this computer so got stuck there. Once I got everything running - loaded Jaws 12 and all came up fine and working well... Now, it was late so my wife went to sleep so I have a question since I'm not home now. I tried researching this in the archives but can't find any reference to exactly when to hold the Option key (Alt on a Windows USB Keyboard) to get the boot options at startup. Is it before the iMac plays the startup noise or after and how long? Then, is the selection side by side or above and below each other on the screen. I've got OSX as my startup selection, but tried hitting Option at several points and moved the selection (what I thought would be the time to do it) but it still kept on bootting into OSX. If I change it in Startup Disk in SL, and restart it comes up in windows and vice versa. The other issue I'm having is the BT. It's on and working. I show all the drivers in the Device Manager under W7, but can't seem to get the keyboard and TrackPad found. I did get the mouse connected it seems.
