    I'm looking at putting bootcamp on my macbook now. I only found a link to macbook EFI firmware update 1.0

    My current boot rom version is mb21.00a5.b00
    smc version 1.13f3

    The firmware link I found says it will update to mb11.0061.b03

    I think mine is newer then this one?

    What firmware link are you using? Generally, just run "Software Update" from the Apple menu. It will tell you if your firmware needs updating. If you bought a new MacBook it's unlikely that it would need a firmware update.

    All you need to download for Boot Camp is at http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/

    I got a refurbished macbook. I did the update from the apple menu. I didn't think it would have done that as well.

    Yeah, Software Update will also notify you of any firmware updates, etc. that are necessary.
