Boot Camp 64 Enabler
Apple does not officially support running 64-bit versions of Windows on all Macs with 64-bit processors. No official Boot Camp installer for example will run on the Early 2009 MacBook 5,2 running Windows 7 64-bit.
Boot Camp 64 Enabler allows Macs with a mobile Nvidia chipset (i.e. it has a 9400M or other Nvidia 'M' GPU in it) that do not officially support 64-bit Windows/Boot Camp 4 to run Windows 7 64-bit like an officially supported Mac by using a modifed Boot Camp 4 and updated Nvidia drivers.
I have been using this for a few days on the MacBook 5,2, I hope this helps someone else with the same situation.
Note: You could probably update to Windows 8 then Windows 10, or maybe even Windows 10 directly after using this, but Windows 7 is what I want so I haven't tried.
