BootCamp Error (HELP)

I'm on my MacBook Pro Mid 2010 and I want to install Windows 10, which isn't officially supported by apple, so I go into info.plist and change some things. I successfully create a an install disk and go on to install "Windows 7 or later version" and am faced with this error (Picture at bottom of page). I already tried to go back into info.plist and try to remove and add my model from various parts, but am still stuck with this error. I don't know if I'm missing anything. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate. Thanks

Would installing Windows 7 and then upgrading to Windows 8 from within the bootcamp install work?

 

I didn't realise Apple had hard locks on support for older macs. That's a shame.

Sorry, I meant Windows 10 there when I said that.

 

Perhaps @DrMacintosh will know a method?

How do you think I could get ahold of them?

He'll have received a notification when I tagged him there, if he's around he might be able to reply - alternatively you could try messaging him on the forums. Click his name and send a message from the top of the page.

Um. Well, I tried creating and deleting partitions called BOOTCAMP that I've failed in making, and now I'm left with this. I can't delete the partition, and now, my internal SSD magically has around 190gb? Notice the -641 on the containerdisk1. (Sorry for bothering you so much about Bootcamp; I'm at my cousin's house for 2 weeks and just want to play coop lol)
