- If yes, use EFI Boot (without using BCA) by creating a GPT partition using Disk Utility of the size you want (I use Free Space), install Windows using EFI boot, then try a image restore. Since the image restore already has BC drivers, you will not need to re-install them (provided the image included the BC drivers to allow proper functioning).

The MacBook 'Core 2 Duo' 2.26 13-Inch (White Polycarbonate 'Unibody' - Late 2009) unveiled a new 'glossy white unibody' case design -- modeled after the previously introduced 'Unibody' MacBook and MacBook Pro models -- but uses polycarbonate rather than aluminum and has a 'non-skid' rubberized bottom surface.
Like the aluminum 'Unibody' models, this system also has a four-finger 'multi-touch' glass trackpad and an integrated battery design that is not intended to be replaced by the end user. Apple reports that this battery design increases runtime, and as a result, this model provides 'up to' 7 hours compared to 5 hours for the model it replaced.
This model is configured with a 45 nm 'Penryn' 2.26 GHz Intel 'Core 2 Duo' processor (P7550) -- with two independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip -- a 3 MB shared 'on chip' level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz frontside bus, 2 GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-8500) installed in pairs (two 1 GB modules), a 250 GB Serial ATA (5400 RPM) hard drive, and an 8X DL 'SuperDrive'. It also features a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 'graphics processor with 256 MB of SDRAM shared with main memory' and a 13.3' widescreen TFT active-matrix LED-backlit 'glossy' display (1280x800 native resolution).
Connectivity includes AirPort Extreme (802.11a/b/g/n), Gigabit Ethernet, two USB 2.0 ports, a single audio in/out port, and a Mini DisplayPort that supports an external display at 2560x1600. It does not have a Firewire port or IR to support a remote.

The MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 3.5 13-Inch (Mid-2017 Retina Display, Touch Bar, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) technically is a 'configure-to-order' configuration of the MacBook Pro 'Core i5' 3.1 13-Inch (Mid-2017 Retina Display, Touch Bar, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports), but also is documented as a separate model for reader convenience. Other than processor, these two models are identical.
The MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 3.5 13-Inch (Mid-2017 Retina Display, Touch Bar, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) is powered by a 14 nm, 7th Generation 'Kaby Lake' 3.5 GHz Intel 'Core i7' processor (7567U), with dual independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip, 64 MB of eDRAM embedded on the processor die, and a 4 MB shared level 3 cache. This notebook also packs 8 GB of onboard 2133 MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM (which could be upgraded to 16 GB at the time of purchase, but cannot be upgraded later), 256 GB or 512 GB of flash storage, and an integrated Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650 graphics processor that shares memory with the system.
Externally, this notebook has an integrated 720p FaceTime HD webcam, a thin, backlit 'second generation' butterfly mechanism keyboard with an integrated 'Touch Bar' touch-sensitive control that adapts for different applications and provides Touch ID login support in lieu of traditional function keys, and a gigantic 'Force Touch' trackpad.
Additionally, it has a high-resolution LED-backlit 13.3' widescreen 2560x1600 (227 ppi, 500 nits) 'Retina' display, and a integrated battery that provides an Apple estimated 10 hours of runtime.
This notebook is offered in either silver colored aluminum or a darker 'Space Gray' colored aluminum housing (but not other colors) and weighs just a bit more than 3 pounds (1.37 kg).
Connectivity includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, four 'Thunderbolt 3' ports (USB-C connector), and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Compared to its predecessor, this model is effectively identical externally, but has a more advanced processor and architecture.
