Dec 10, 2017 @chocomonsters Thank you very much for letting us know. I'm not clear reading the release note whether version 17.1.64.250 or 17.2.71.250 is the one with added Apple Boot Camp support. It was added in 17.1.64.250 so it should also be in 17.2.71.250, but this is Intel so who knows. ? What's curious is that this driver is for the NUC and not for Apple products so it's odd that Boot Camp. I'm looking to install Boot Camp on MBP 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, (10.7.5) I have used Boot Camp in the past on the same MBP. I've tried starting the Boot Camp Assistant but keep getting the message: 'Can't Install Windows Support Software because it is not currently available. From the Software Update Server'. Apr 05, 2006 We installed Boot Camp on the iMac Core Duo; the software will also work with the Mac Mini and the MacBook Pro.Before we could run the app, we first had to update our iMac to Mac OS X 10.4.6.
- The Apple Mac mini 'Core i7' 2.0 Server (Mid-2011) features a 32-nm 'Sandy Bridge' Quad Core 2.0 GHz Intel 'Core i7' (2635QM) processor with four independent processor 'cores' on a single chip, a 6 MB shared level 3 cache, 4 GB of 1333 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-10600) memory, dual 500 GB hard drives, and Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 384 MB of memory.
- May 21, 2010 The Mac specs are as follows: Core 2 Duo 2.33 GHz, 3 GB RAM (up from 2), 320 GB WD Black (upgraded from 120), Mac OS X 10.6.3 After creating the Boot Camp partition and booting from the Windows 7 CD, the installation began and everything went fine. No problems at all during the installation.
The Apple Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' 2.0 features a 2.0 GHz Intel 'Core 2 Duo' (T7200) processor, a 4 MB on-chip level 2 cache, a 667 MHz frontside bus, 1 GB of 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300) memory, a 5400 RPM, 120 GB Serial ATA hard drive, a slot-loading 2.4X double-layer 'SuperDrive', an 'Intel GMA950 graphics processor with 64 MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory', and a bundled Apple Remote.
Connectivity includes DVI (DVI-to-VGA adapter included) and Firewire '400', four USB 2.0 ports, combined 'optical digital audio input/audio line in' and combined 'optical digital audio output/headphone' minijacks, a 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port, and built-in AirPort Extreme (802.11g) and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR. It lacks an internal 56k modem, but an external Apple USB Modem could be purchased for US$49.
The 'Core 2 Duo' Mac mini models effectively are the same as the 'Core Duo' models that preceded them, but as the name implies, the 'Core 2 Duo' systems shipped with faster processors as well as additional RAM. This model also has a larger hard drive.
All Mac mini models have the internal components cleverly enclosed in a tiny and elegant 2.9 lb, 6.5 inch square, two inch tall case with a built-in speaker and an external power supply. Additionally, all Mac mini systems ship without a display, keyboard, or mouse, but numerous Apple and third-party options are available.
Also see: What are the differences between the Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' models? How do they compare to their predecessors?

Apple Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' 2.66 (Mid-2010) Specs
Identifiers: Mid-2010 - BTO/CTO - Macmini4,1 - A1347 - 2364

The Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' 2.66 (Mid-2010) technically is a 'configure-to-order' configuration of the Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' 2.4 (Mid-2010), but also is documented as a separate model for reader convenience. Other than processor, these two models are identical.
The Apple Mac mini 'Core 2 Duo' 2.66 (Mid-2010/Aluminum Unibody) features a 2.66 GHz Intel 'Core 2 Duo' (P8800) processor, a 3 MB on-chip level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz frontside bus, 2 GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-8500) memory, a 320 GB 3 Gb/s Serial ATA hard drive, a slot-loading 8X double-layer 'SuperDrive', and a NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256 MB of memory shared with the system.
Connectivity includes an HDMI and a Mini DisplayPort, a Firewire '800' port, four USB 2.0 ports, combined 'audio line in (digital/analog)' and combined 'audio line out/headphone (digital/analog)' minijacks, a 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port, built-in AirPort Extreme (802.11a/b/g/n), and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, in addition to an SD (SDXC) card slot.
Unlike earlier Mac mini models, which use a polycarbonate case, the 'Mid-2010' line uses a 'Unibody' case -- milled from a single block of aluminum -- with a 'spin off' black plastic base on the underside that makes it easy to upgrade the RAM. The power supply is integrated as well. All Mac mini systems ship without a display, keyboard, or mouse, but numerous Apple and third-party options are available.
