![]() The following is advice in order to configure your system as adequately as possible when using this configuration. The Mac portion is OK but I have things in the BootCamp section that I don’t want to rebuilt the BootCamp section and lose everything.It should be noted that using BootCamp configurations is not officially supported and may not work at all on some systems. The machine BootCamp died and I still couldn’t get it worked again. I also had a 21″ iMac running with BootCamp ( I bought the machine when it was on sales saving $400). I don’t recommand novice Windows users using Apple Machines running BootCAMP. I went through 3 MacBookPro 15.4″ with BootCamp Windows 7, unbelievable amount of hours losted in keeping the machine running software-wise. Moral of the story is: Don’t mess with BootCamp. All I needed to do is find out what is missing and reinstall. It booted up with the Windows 7, icon locations scrambled, screen resolution screwed up, BootCamp ControlPanel icon still not found in System Tray but at least not BOD. ShutDown the machine and reboot and kept my finger crossed. I booted the machine up with Safe Mode (still worked), ran the software and restored the restore point. I recalled by accident I backed up my System Retore Point recently with a 3rd party software named Advanced Uninstaller. I did System Restore from an even older, older restore point. I did System Restore from an even older restore point. I did System Restore from an older restore point. I did System Restore from recent restore point. One at a time and reboot once at a time -> BOD. I booted it in Safe Mode, yes it worked and start to unintall drivers I did reboot from Last Know Good Restore Point, BOD I rebooted the machine after the reinstallion of the BootCamp package, and all I got was BOD BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH in Windows worst kind scenario of ALL. Then my nightmare started and lost hours of sleep. ![]() Ithen thought reinstalled (run setup.exe) of my BootCamp driver package (the same old one used for this machine) thinking that would solve the issue, time of that was the last night before. I followed the instrustions of here how to fix the problem, but for my machine, it didn’t worked. Recently, I notice the icon is no longer there (don’t know when did that happened). I used to have the BootCamp icon in the System Tray. I have a MacBookPro Model 11.3 (15″ Retina) with BootCamp Windows 7 Ultimate SP1. From here onwards, Boot Camp icon will automatically start with Windows and will be available to access from system tray. Step 7: Restart your PC to see the Boot Camp in the system tray.
