Windows 10: Black Screen after install windows 10 1809 on Macbook Air (mid 2012)

I installed windows 10 1809 on my MacBook air (mid 2012) without bootcamp. It showed black screen during account setup and didn't get back. Any known issue with MacBook air (mid 2012)?

Windows 10 installation error (macbook air mid 2011, 13")

Dear all,

I tried to install Windows 10 to my macbook air (mid 2011, 13"), but encountered an error.

At first, I tried installation using Boot Camp of OSX (Yosemete), but I encountered an error (code: 0x80070570) during the process of installation (file copying step at 9%).

Then, I tried manual installation by using EFI, following the steps in http://gadgetunit.com/2012/12/28/tutorial-install-windows-8-on-a-mac-via-native-efi-video. But I still encountered an error in the following step at around the progress of 9%:

• dism /apply-image /imagefile:C:\sources\install.wim /index:1 /applydir:Y:\

I checked the log file, and uploaded it to https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwXXp7EkBWw8LVcxTnVjbmJiS28/view?usp=sharing .

For brevity, I think the error occured at the following point.

2015-07-31 04:02:26, Info DISM DISM WIM Provider: PID=1364 [CreateParallelDecodeInfo3517) -> Multithreaded decoding for LZMS wim is NOT enabled!] (null) (HRESULT=0x0) - CWimManager::WimProviderMsgLogCallback

[1364] [0x8007025d] DecodeChunk1574): 지 한 버퍼에 잘못된 형식의 데이터가 있습니다.

(The Korean sentence means that "There are wrong-format-data at the designated buffer.".)

At first, I thought that the iso file of Windows 10 is corrupted. But when I installed it to virtual box in IBM/Intel pc, the installation successfully finished without an error. Probably there may be some incompatibility between the command sets in macbook
air (mid 2011) and Windows 10.

Could you please provide me a comment or help in this issue?

Did you have success on a mid-2011 macbook air? I would also like to do this upgrade, but this article doesn't list the mid-2011.

Install Windows on your Mac with Boot Camp

 

Windows on Macbook Pro using Bootcamp

Hi,

You need support software (drivers) installed with Boot Camp to use Windows 10. This software is automatically downloaded when you use Boot Camp Assistant. Boot Camp supports 64-bit versions of Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro when used with a supported
Mac. Here are the list that supports Windows 10:

• MacBook Pro (2012 and later)
• MacBook Air (2012 and later)
• MacBook (2015 and later)
• iMac Pro (2017)iMac (2012 and later)
• Mac mini (2012 and later)
• Mac mini Server (Late 2012)
• Mac Pro (Late 2013)

We also suggest that you check and follow the steps shared by Andre Da Costa on this
thread on how to setup Windows 10 on your Mac using Boot Camp.
