Tried Using Bootcamp And Now Stuck On Windows Logo Download And Install

Drivers shouldnt be a problem if some hardware isnt manufactured specially for Mac.

Can anyone tell me if there are any implications with this when working with autoCAD and 3Ds Max etc.

The Apple-approved Bootcamp configuration for running Windows 10 installs older drivers, which may not be best for 3ds Max.

However, if you download and install the latest GPU drivers (for Windows) under Bootcamp, then Apple no longer certifies this setup if you need help.

I looked into what was needed to run cad programs but I was concentrating on how much RAM and processing power I needed.

Being new to CAD I wasnt aware almost all of them concentrate on pc versions making it virtually impossible to do it on a Mac.

This is really devastating to find out having spent a fortune on the new 16 MacBook Pro.

Ive done a lot of photography and used adobe in the past so am used to macs being the best at design.

But not in the case of CAD it seems.

Im a bit stuck as Ive been running the free version of autoCAD on the new laptop so have been using it and have owned it for just under a month, so dont think returning it is an option now having used it.

If I were to be able to return it, what pc laptop would you recommend What graphics cards, processors etc shall I look for I chose the Mac as I could get the i9 processor, where as most pc laptop seemed to only have the i7.

I brought the newest MacBook Pro in order to future proof myself, but I feel Ive just wasted 2500 on something that cant do what I want it to do as the programs are not supported.

Any help you can give to recommend the right pc I would need would be greatly appreciated.

But, I dont want you to have to spend any more money on this, so Im going to do what I can to help you.

If you can install Windows 10 successfully via Boot Camp on your Macintosh, then you should be able to install 3ds Max under that Windows 10 installation.

The biggest caveat would be drivers -- the drivers that Boot Camp installs tend to be the safest, most conservative drivers that Apple certifies will work on their hardware under Windows 10.

For best performance under Windows, I would recommend (at the very least) going to the GPU manufacturers website and installing the latest Windows video card drivers for your particular Macs GPU, before installing 3ds Max.

These should give Max the best performance under Windows 10.

Depending on your Macs screen resolution, though, you may have to tweak your Windows 10 display settings to get 3ds Max to look acceptable -- 5K iMacs seem to be finicky about such things, for instance.).

However, if you have problems with this, please post your questions here and send me a private message, if you want, and Ill do my best to help you.

Ultimately, our goal is for you to be successful working with 3ds Max, so please let me know how you want to proceed.

Again, although Autodesk doesnt officially support this configuration, I do know of customers who are working this way successfully, and since you spent a large amount of money on your computer, I want to do my best to help you succeed with Max.

If Windows is installed properly with all drivers Max (or any windows program) should work like on pure Windows system.
