CPU Overheating problem on Windows 8.1 Pro (installed with BootCamp)

There is a really important overheating problem on windows 8.1 (installed with bootcamp) even i do nothing Cpu is 50-60-70 Celcius degrees. This is really annoying problem. Most of users necessarily need windows OS for using third part programs that doesnt exist on OS X platform. I think this problem is important and has to be fixed as soon as possible.
My brand new Mac:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
2,5 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

I have the same problem on macbook pro retina 15 late 2013 - top configuration

Read and follow the Bootcamp Installation instructions that you were offered to view when you ran Bootcamp Assistant.
Run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the option to download the Bootcamp Support software. Follow the instructions. Then boot into Windows and install the Windows Support software you downloaded and saved.

Yoga 2 Pro : BIOS Update on a clean Windows 8.1 Pro install

Hi,
I recently bought the Yoga 2 Pro. Like everybody I have the yellow problem.
After buying it, I reinstalled my computer with a fresh Windows 8.1 pro install.
I was wondering if anybody has already tried updating the BIOS on a clean Windows 8.1 install ?
And also if there is any reported bug with the BIOS update.
I already crashed a while back one of my previous computer and I would prefer if this don't append again
Thanks,
Best,

Not, i'm speaking about the BIOS update. The windows 8.1 pro installation was fine.

Crypto failure when upgrading Windows 8.1 Pro install to Windows 10 Tech Preview 10041

Has anybody experienced the following error when trying to upgrade a Windows 8.1 Pro install to Windows 10 Tech Preview 10041
crypto_self_test_failed
The system reboots twice both times with the same error and then reverts back to Windows 8.1 Pro. This occurs during the upgrade process. Windows 10 never installs.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks
Eric Sten

Hi Eric,
It seems to be the upgrade self-test fails.
For testing Windows 10, you may consider take use of Hyper-V and install a VM of Windows 10:

Or try a dual boot:

Can i download windows to install with bootcamp

can i download windows to install with bootcamp or do i have to buy a physical CD to get windows on a macbook pro?

As your MBP has an optical drive you must install from a disc, not an iso on a stick. The previous advice is incorrect.
Purchase the version of Windows you want on a disk. If you already bought an iso burn it to a disc.

Windows Update in Endless Loop of 'Installing updates" and "Undoing changes" on New Windows 8.1 Pro Install

I am setting new Windows 8.1 Pro computers, and am installing Windows 8.1 Pro to bare drives. Everything goes fine until Windows Update starts installing updates, and then the computer goes for hours installing updates, and then "We
could not complete the updates Undoing changes". It's an endless loop. It seems to be the same 38 updates. This is a recent phenomenon. I have not run into this until the last week or two on several new computer installs.
Again these are brand new installs, so something is clearly wrong with the Windows updates.
If anyone can please tell me how to avoid this, it would be much appreciated.
Michael

Hi Michael,
" This is a recent phenomenon"
Have you made any modifications to the machines ?
To resolve this issue ,running the built-in troubleshoot tool is a very good beginning .It will automatically diagnostic the windows update components and check the configurations for us .
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\Fix problems with Windows Update
If there are antivirus software installed in these machines, please turn off them temporarily to have a check.
The command line included in the link as S.Sengupta posted is very useful and convenient to repair the windows corrupted files .We can have a try .
"sfc /scannow" ,"DISM.EXE /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth "
We also can check the windowsupdate.log for more information to troubleshoot this issue .
Run "windowsupdate.log"
If you have trouble in analyzing the log ,please upload them to the OneDrive and paste the link here .

Clean Windows 8.1 Pro install over Windows 8.1 SL

Hi,
I have a Lenovo H520g desktop, which came with Windows 8 Single Language installed. The machine is currently updated to Windows 8.1 Single Language.
As I am a software developer, I need to use Windows 8.1 Pro, because the SL version doesn't have Hyper-V, which is necessary to run the Windows Phone SDK emulator.
For the reason explained above, I would like hear the advice of an official Microsoft representative on the matter discussed on this topic.
I do know I can update from Windows 8.1 to Windows 8.1 Pro by using the "Add features to Windows 8.1" item on the Windows 8.1 Control Panel and buying the Windows 8,.1 Pro Pack. Nevertheless, I prefer buying the full retail version of Windows 8.1
Pro on a DVD from a local Microsoft reseller. I need a quick way to restore my machine in the case of a HDD failure and having the full retail DVD is definitely the best way to do that. If I upgrade by buying the Windows 8.1 Pro Pack, should my HDD ever failure,
I'll have to do the Lenovo restore procedure (which would restore the computer to Windows 8 SL), then upgrade to Windows 8.1 and only after that I could apply the Windows 8.1 Pro Pack.
My question is: will I be able to do a fresh install of Windows 8.1 Pro on my computer? Of course I'm aware I'll have to delete the partition Windows 8.1 is currently installed on. No problem with that.
But what about the license key? I've read that computers that come with Windows 8 pre-installed have the Windows license key embedded on the BIOS. Will I be able to start the standard Windows 8.1 Pro installation from the DVD and use the license key that comes
with the DVD?
It's very important for me being absolutely sure I'll be able to do a clean install of Windows 8.1 Pro on my Lenovo desktop. The Windows 8.1 Pro full retail DVD is rather expensive here in Brazil (about US$ 320).
Cheers,

Hi PauloBR1,
If you upgrade to Windows 8.1 Pro by Windows 8.1 Pro Pack,you can use
System Image Backup feature to backup your system.Also,you can use this feature to restore your system quickly.
In addition,britishdhez is right.
We can use the Retail license key to active the Windows 8.1 Pro.

Ge70 2OE Laptop with window 8.1 Pro installed unlock virtualization via bios

I have installed windows 8.1 pro on the c: drive over the original window 8.
I was told in order to enable virtualization I had to update my bios .
I went to the site of msi/downloads and went to ge70 2OE and downloaded the bios update for windows 8.1 no raid..
I did exactly what the help file told me to do. I went just as in the screens.
I went to the bios but the version number (2.15.1236) was still the same. Also virtualization was still not enabled .
What is here the problem. I it windows 8.1 Pro?. Or did I do something wrong in the process?

MDT 2013 Windows 8.1 application install with reboot problem

Hello!
I have a problem with an application install on Windows 8.1. I'm trying to install two applications and have activated "Reboot the computer after installting this application" for the first application. After rebooting the deployment window does
not show up agagin. BDD.log shows, that the deployment starts after the reboot but seems to hang, before the UI shows.
I tried to install this two applications under Windows 7, which works without any problems.
Here is the BDD.log for the failed deployment: http://pastebin.com/PbUH1LUq
Can anyone confirm this problem with MDT 2013 and Windows 8.1? Any ideas how to fix this?
Additional information: Further testing showed, that this problem just occurs, if the application install gets started separately after deploying the OS. If the applications are installed in one deployment together with the OS, everything works fine.

I did the same install on Windows 7, which worked without any problems. Here is the log file: http://pastebin.com/Qgn2PzyC
To make it clear:
If I run a Lite Touch Install task sequence to install Windows 8.1 and install the two applications within this LTI, everything works fine. The computer reboots after installing the first application and the deployment goes on and finishes successfully after
the reboot.
If I first install Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 via LTI and then (after LTI successfully finished) start a separate application install (using a custom task sequence with only one "Install Application" task in it), everything works fine with Windows
7 (installation continues and finishes after the reboot) but fails with Windows 8.1.
In Windows 8.1 the computer reboots after installing the first application, but after rebooting, the installation does not start again.
Keith, as you said, my environment is corrupted, I created an new fresh deployment share, just added the two test applications and the custom task sequence and tried again. Same result, Windows 7 works fine, Windows 8.1 fails by not starting the installation
after the reboot.

Windows 8.1 Pro Bitlocker with HP Envy 700

I just got a new HP Envy 700-249. I upgraded to Windows 8.1 Pro immediately for Bitlocker and Remote Access. The PC will be stored in a relatively unsecure location and is for public use - but will have a few users who have access to install software, store private files, etc. SO I want to be sure that the OS stays safe as well as the data.
I want a way to keep someone from accessing anything on C drive that isn't in the Public folders and make the drive unable to be viewed if booted from anything other than itself. So I figured BitLocker. I've gone into gpedit.msc and set option to allow bitlocker without TPM. BitLocker runs and allows me to turn on encryption. I've tried a couple of types of USB drives and BitLocker says it has saved the key to them. I've checked and they have a BitLocker recovery file on them.
BUT - when the system reboots, it will not recognize the USB drive as the key and will not encrypt the drive. I am stumped.
Has anyone gotten an HP non-TPM desktop to encrypt the OS and data drives with Win 8.1 Bitlocker? How?????

Hi,
Bit locker was meant to encrypt entire physical drives. Review this MS article.
I would suggest that you install a second hard drive and then move your sensitive files and documents to that physical hard drive and use bit locker to encrypt that hard drive. If you are going to keep the key on an external device (USB flash drive) then make a backup copy in case the USB drive fails or is lost.

Clean Windows 8.1 Pro install uses 70gb of diskspace (nMP)

Dear community,
After following all the steps of the latest Bootcamp instructions (using an USB-stick Wininstall to install Windows) I've end up with the same problem twice.
When Windows 8.1 is installed, it says it uses about 70 - 76 GB of storage. Unfortunately there are no files that big (even in the Windows folders).
I've tried several options (like using freeing up Disk space in configuration window).
Are there any hidden files I don't know of?

Okay disabled Hibernation through:

And the used space went from 76GB to 25GB!

Mac Pro crashing with BootCamp 3.0 drivers that came with snow leopard

I have a 2008 (early) 2.8ghz Mac Pro. Additions are 2 500gb HD for 1tb software RAID 0, and stock 320gb HD. Running boot camp with windows vista on the stock 320gb HD. No probs with bootcamp 2.1 but when upgraded to bootcamp 3.0 drivers that came with snow leopard. Computer crashes and does not boot past the windows symbol just before login prompt. Also does a crash dump and restarts.
Reformatting drive and reinstalling Vista with 2.1 drivers have no problems.
Please help!

Apple technote on renaming AppleHFS.sys - the read feature for HFS volumes.
The faulty HFS driver is a valid concern.
It seems to happen on many systems.
You find it in Windows/system32/drivers/AppleHFS.sys
Renaming to AppleHFS_disabled.sys will avoid the blue screens until you have found another solution or Apple updates Bootcamp 3.0.
If the system crashes before you can edit the name you can do it in OS X as well if you install NTFS drivers. Paragon has a test driver that will do temporarily.
(can't find the technote - searching Apple support kb has only gotten harder in the last couple years, and typing "Apple HFS Windows" in Google is something best I can do)

Wifi on Surface Pro - installed with ndiswrapper but not working

Hi there guys.
I have installed Arch on a Surface Pro and most things work well.
The biggest problem so far is wifi - it comes with a 88w8797 Marvell Avastar chipset. I managed to find the drivers and used ndiswrapper to install them.
$ ndiswrapper -l
mwlu97w8 : driver installed
device (1286:2043) present (alternate driver: mwifiex_usb)
The ndiswrapper help page says that one should get rid of alternate drivers before enabling ndiswrapper but I have no clue where to start - that seems to be a kernel loaded module (link) but it really doesn't do much apparently.
I did 'modprobe ndiswrapper' but as you can see below, nothing seems to be really happening
# iwconfig
enp0s20u2u3 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.
dmesg returns this on ndiswrapper
$ dmesg | grep ndiswrapper
[ 2.996565] ndiswrapper version 1.58 loaded (smp=yes, preempt=yes)
[ 4.230024] usbcore: registered new interface driver ndiswrapper
The gnome network manager, just like iwconfig, shows no able wireless.
I'm at a loss on what to do, any help is greatly appreciatted

The blacklisting was a good call as I had completely forgot to do so. Made a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf with 'install mwifiex_usb /bin/false' - nothing changed though, the wireless network still won't show.

Will my Razer Gaming products work on my Macbook pro 2011 with bootcamp?

I have purchased 16gb of RAM for my Macbook pro late 2011 so bootcamp will run very fast when I purchase it. I was wondering if my Razer gaming accesories will work on my Macbook with bootcamp, and for future purchases of gaming accessories. Thanks

Boot Camp is
a misname for an Apple oriented GPart etc to partiton a drive for use by Windows natively, drivers, a control panel for Windows, and download utility for those drivers.
You are running Windows natively which is 93% the same as running on most any PC hardware.
So it should.

Use Windows Server 2003 or 2008 with BootCamp?Just want to run basic things

Hey, well I can get a copy of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and 2008 with the DreamSpark program (as I am in college) for free. But my question is, is this a good idea to use with my MacBook Pro? I wasn't sure how well it'd work with Boot Camp, and all I'd want is to just run basic programs and/or games.
Is it a good idea? And does anyone have tutorials for how to install it?

Hi,
Windows Server 2003 and XP 64-bit share the same codebase and XP-64bit is not supported with BootCamp.
Windows Server 2008 and Vista 64-bit share the same codebase and Vista 64-bit is only supported with BootCamp on some Macs. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
For running 'basic' things with the Server versions, why not use one of the Virtualization apps like Parallels, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox ?
http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
http://www.virtualbox.org/
VirtualBox is open-source, so you don't have to pay for it.
