Hello,

I´m not a command line man, and really have no idea how to type a correct command line. Well, i'm having troubles trying to install the update to bootcamp 2.1 within windows. I've visited apple support web and found a boot camp 2.1 Troubleshooting installation issues.

Copy and paste from Apple support:



1. In Windows, start a command prompt (cmd.exe, sometimes referred to as a command shell). Use Administrative rights if running Windows Vista.
2. Type one the following command lines in the command shell:

For Windows Vista 64 bit, type: msiexec /update <path to the .msp file>\BCUpdateVista64.msp

3. Click Next
4. Accept the terms of the license agreement if you agree, then click Next
5. Click Repair/Update

Your Boot Camp drivers will be updated to version 2.1. This may take several minutes.
6. Click Finish to exit the installer and restart your computer.


I´m not sure if what i've wrote is correct(running as an administrator):
C:\Windows\system32> msiexec /update C:\Users\jespizua\Downloads\BCUpdateVista64.msp

Screen capture of command prompt:

Any help would be apreciated. Thanks in advance

looks like you've got a slash when it should be a back-slash
