Dec 30, 2017 - var q Windows7usb3. 0driverbootcampUse the Apple Magic Mouse on Windows 7. Back in October 2. Apple released the Magic Mouse, the.
I spent a day trying to install Windows 7 on a Apple late 2013 15 inch Macbook Pro using bootcamp. After hours of research I found out that only Windows 8 is supported on the new Mac Pro (Late 2013) with Bootcamp, When Windows 7 Installation starts after the regional settings I got this error message.
It happens because the Windows 7 won’t find the intel drivers for the USB 3.0 ports.
However, I found a way to install Windows 7 on a new Mac Pro (Late 2013) with Bootcamp, see below how you can do it.
1 – Open Boot Camp Assistant, in the Utilities folder.
2 – Select the option to add a Windows partition, and Create a Windows 7 Install disk, you will need a Windows 7 ISO.
3 – Follow the onscreen instructions for the options you selected.
4 – When you’re asked to create a partition for Windows, choose the partition’s size.
5 – Boot Camp Assistant creates the Windows partition, restarts your Mac, to start the installation. (You will shutdown your Mac at this stage so we can prepare the USB installation disk, prior the installation.)
The work around is to install the latest Intel Platform Controller Hub drivers. Boot Camp does include such drivers, however they are outdated and causes a lot of headache.
Follow these simple steps to update the drivers.
- Download the latest Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver for Intel® 8 Series/C220 Chipset Family.
- Unzip the downloaded folder.
- Copy to your clipboard the folder Drivers.
- Insert your made Windows 7 USB boot pen drive.
- Navigate to WININSTALLER/$WinPEDriver$/IntelxHCISetup/ and paste the Drives folder, replacing the current folder on the disk.
- Reboot and the installer will run, Windows should install correctly now.
Good luck.

Latest USB 3.0 Host Controller Drivers
Most common problems with Logic Pro 8 and Logic Pro 16 on Windows 7 can be solved by simply updating the USB 3.0 host controller drivers manually.
If you are unsure which driver you need or would like to verify that you are downloading the correct driver, feel free to collect the information about your host controller and contact Saleae support.
First, identify which USB 3.0 host controller(s) is installed on your system. Most machines will have a single USB 3.0 host controller and two USB 2.0 host controllers. To find the installed host controller(s), please follow the instructions below.

Below are the latest driver versions and download links for each host controller.
Windows 7
These driver links should only be used if you are using Windows 7. Not all drivers are available directly from the host controller vendor and are instead distributed by the PCI express card or motherboard vendor that integrated that host controller. In most cases, it is just fine to use a driver download from a different website than the one that sold you the card, as long as it uses the same host controller. It is also okay to download the driver directly from the company where you purchased the card. In that case, please verify that the driver version is the same or newer than the one mentioned below. We recommend that you use drivers available directly from the host controller manufacturer.

Windows 8 and later Microsoft operating systems use a new Microsoft-created USB 3.0 driver that supports all USB 3.0 host controllers. This driver works extremely well, and it is the recommended driver for all USB 3.0 host controllers with the single exception of ASMedia.

For other host controllers, there is no need to perform any kind of driver update when you are on one of these releases of Windows.
OS X
USB 3.0 host controller drivers are part of the OS X operating system and are not updated separately. Updates to different parts of the USB stack are frequently included in Apple updates, so it is highly recommended that you keep your OS up to date and running the latest OS X release.
* OSX Bootcamp (Windows)
If you are running Windows on Apple hardware, be sure to update the bootcamp software to the latest version. Specifically, make sure you are running bootcamp 5 or newer. If you are running Windows 7, after you have bootcamp 5+ installed, please verify that you can locate the Intel USB 3.0 host controller in the device manager list under 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers.' If you can not locate that device, there may have been an issue installing the bootcamp drivers. In that case, you can try to manually install the USB 3.0 drivers by downloading the bootcamp zip file from Apple, extracting it, and locating the Intel USB 3.0 driver installer here:
- BootCamp5.1.5621/BootCamp/Drivers/Intel/IntelxHCISetup.exe
Run that application and reboot your computer to install the Intel USB 3.0 host controller drivers.
Linux
On Linux, all USB 3.0 host controllers use the xhci_hcd kernel module, which cannot be updated separately from the Linux kernel. In general, we recommend using kernel 3.4 or later (Ubuntu 14.04.1 or newer). Although the products do work on older kernels, we do not officially support those use cases.
If you have trouble with the devices connecting or capturing on Linux, please be sure to contact support and include information about your kernel version and installed host controllers. Specifically, please provide the output of:
- uname -r
- lspci -k
- lsusb
Note: lsusb must be run when the Saleae Logic device is connected.
