Windows 7 - On a Macbook

Go to solution Solved by DESPERADOtheREVIEWER,

Windows 7 on 64MB vRAM? Eep. Good luck with it, mate.

 

It should run fine man, my friend has 7Pro 32-bit installed and it runs fine. All I need it for is in case I need to use my Software which isn't available on MAC OS X. Will be mainly using Mac OS anyway. Even the official website says it supports Win7 32-bit

Hey guys. Recently I got a Black Macbook (A1181) for a great price from a guy who thought it was dead. I found out the charger was faulty and so was the battery. After I replaced both it worked flawlessly. I have a laptop I bring around with me on business but I wanted something smaller I can always have in my backpack and this Macbook is almost perfect. 
 
I installed Windows 7 on several Intel based Macbooks before and never ran into any issues. The one I have now is just different. If I plug my bootable USB into it and hold down Option key it only shows HDD partitions. When I go through bootcamp it starts but then says it couldn't find install disc or something along those lines. I tried both USB flash drive as well as a DVD and neither worked. 

 

Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks
