Can't install Boot Camp support software

I have a MacBook Pro Retina 13 late 2013, running Mavericks 10.9.1.

 

I have installed the latest version of VMWare Fusion (6.02), then installed Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit version. And I installed VMWare tools in Windows.

 

When I try to use the external Superdrive (USB) in windows, I get a message from VMWare that says I need to download the Boot Camp support software to be able to use the Superdrive.

 

I followed the instructions, first from Boot Camp Assistant, then by downloading the support software from Apple. When I try to install the Boot Camp support software in Windows, I get the following error:

 

"This version of Boot Camp is not intended for this computer model." I have attached a screen shot of the error.

 

The version of the support software I downloaded from Apple is 5.1.5640, which says it is the correct version for my MacBook and version of Windows.

 

I am not running Boot Camp itself. I just want to install the support drivers, per what VMWare told me.

 

Is there a solution?
