    Hello,

    I'm curious to know if anyone has downloaded the bootcamp goods in the past few days since 10.8.2 came out. Did Apple even update bootcamp? Just checking to see if maybe the bootcamp boot device control Windows app was updated and works on Windows 8 now.

    Thanks!

    I used the Mountain Lion 10.8.2 bootcamp app to build a USB stick and install Windows 8. It installed bootcamp 4.0 and nothing has changed. The Windows bootcamp application still doesn't run.

    You are running Windows 8? Does your bootcamp notification area application run and allow you to select the target boot device or change the properties for the mouse and trackpad?
