If anyone finds the source of the pad pool header let us know.I am having a hard time getting Windows 7 to install on my iMac 2011.

DO NOT INSTALL THE BOOTCAMP SETUP!!!! If you're using a 64 bit version of windows then click on the 圆4 folder for those drivers.Go ahead and install whatever else you fell you need.

Go ahead and install these drivers individually to your liking. Once you're happy with your newley installed windows 10 go ahead and open open up your Apple Boot Camp Drivers Folder. Windows seems to install its own driver for the gpu so thats already working. Still not sure what driver causes the bad pool headers but it has something to do with one of the drivers from the windows 7 bootcamp instalation. Instead of upgrading from windows 7 to 10 i basically installed a fresh iso copy and installed some drivers individually. Only flaw i seem to have is the volume buttons on my wireless mac keyboard doesn't control the volume on windows (first world problems huh? lol). I seem to have gotten windows 10 running almost perfect. Has anyone had a similar experience and if so, did they manage to get around it / resolved? If so, I can assure you that this will be the last Mac I ever buy. So is the expectation, that if I want to continue to run Windows 10 and use an iMac, that I just buy another one? Is this part of some sick marketing strategy? So after doing some more research and thinking, I have tried to install the latest drivers for the hardware that I have from the actual manufacturer's website (where I can find them) and my Bad_Pool_Header / blue screen of death problem now only happens abount 1 in 7 times. They couldn't say if there was ever going to be either, and basically offered my ZERO support.

Anyway they confirmed that what is on their website was indeed true and that there is no support for a mid-2011 model iMac with Windows 10.

So back to Apple support who had no record of the last support chat I had (disappointingly convenient). This was disappointing since it was after I did this that I also discovered that my DVD/RW drive was no longer recognized at all in Windows - it's like it didn't (and still doesn't) exist, and my success rate of logging into Windows without getting that Bad_Pool_Header error regressed to (and still is) about 1 in 10. I did this, and when I tried to install the drivers, Windows told me that I had the latest drivers already.

So, I contacted Apple support, had a chat with an individual who told me to upgrade my Mac OS to Yosemite, download the latest boot-camp drivers and try to install them (and this should fix my problem). It turned out MUCH to my surprise, that Apple doesn't support Windows 10 boot-camp on a mid-2011 iMac - simple as that. After several re-boots, the same thing kept happening so eventually I did some research. I did the upgrade and everything worked fine for a while, until one day I tried to boot up, logged in and got a blue screen of death with a "Bad_Pool_Header" error message. When Windows 10 came out and I was offered a free upgrade, I took it, and assumed that there would be support for my Mac with Windows 10.

I have a mid-2011 iMac that I had previously been running Windows 7 boot-camp on (with relatively few problems).
