Display is under Windows XP a lot Brigther

My Macbook Pro (LED) Display is under Windows XP a lot Brigther then in OS X.
When i sitting Outside, i put the Brigthness under OS X to Maximum to see anything, under Windows Xp ist enough 75%. The Display is Calibrated.
Someone know a sulotion to get the same Brithness as in Windows?

Perhaps try turning off "automatically adjust brightness" in the Displays pref pane? I don't know for sure, but I suspect that doesn't affect Windows (if you're running Windows in BootCamp), which might account for the difference.

Better Display Driver under Windows 8 than Windows 7 for MacBook Pro Retina?

Anyone happen to know if the display support for a MacBook Pro Retina is better under Windows 8 than it is under Windows 7?
Ideally, I would like to be able to run 2880x1800 at True Color as well as have the HDMI out fuction as a second display (maching the behaviour while booted under Max OS X 10.8).
Under Windows 7, the highest resolution that supports True Color is 1600x1200. This would be okay if that setting did not distort the picture (everything is slightly squeezed). At 2880x1800, the highest color depth is High Color (16-bit) which is, well, not something one can actually use if doing graphics work. On my 27" iMac, 2680x1600 supports True Color as expected.
Also under Windows 7, the display connected via HDMI is not recognized.
I've contected both Apple care support and Microsoft support about this, but Apple referred me to Microsoft and Microsoft referrred me back to Apple.
Thanks,
Warren
P.S. Personally, I think it's rediculous to even attempt to do graphics work under Windows, but tell that to the Windwows based corporate world that I freelance in.

Yes, there is a better display driver for the MacBook Pro Retina while running Windows 7 Pro.
And, the answer is so obvious, that I feel a little silly having started this thread in the first place!
The Windows 7 Professional NVIDIA drivers for the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M card need to be installed manually by downloading them from NVIDIA directly.
If you need to do this on your MBPr Boot Camp volume, use this link:
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
Then, set the pop-up menus based on your MBPr. [Mine were as follows: GeForce; GeForce 600M Series (Notbooks); GeForce GT 650M; Windows 7 64-bit: English (US)]
What tipped me off to this is that the CUDA drivers need to be downloaded manually on the Mac OS X side to take full advantage of raytracing in Adobe After Effects CS6 and CC. As soon as I started to run that installer it dawned on me, "Hey, you probably need to install the drivers on the Boot Camp side as well." And sure enough after doing so, I am able select all of the expected resolutions as well as run 2880 x 1800 at Millions of Colors (32-bit).
I guess I'm showing my nearly three decades worth of being a Mac user where I'm accustomed to having about everything needed included with the OS.

Dual Display view under Windows XP

Does my Notebook display dual view under Windows XP?

I've done some research. This dual display with single graphic chip feature was not offered with Windows 2000. This is a software restriction of Microsoft's Windows 2000 operating system and not a hardware technical restriction.

MacBook Pro cannot connect to external display (projector) under Windows

Our office has got one of those lovely new 13" MacBook Pros and we cannot figure out why it cannot connect to either of our 2 projectors with Windows 7.
We have an older MBP with NVidia graphics that connects just fine under both OS X and Windows. And this machine connects fine under Snow Leopard.
There was a recent Thunderbolt chipset update and we applied that; on the Windows side the Intel driver has been updated but nothing happens. Have also zapped the PRAM to no effect.
To add another wrinkle: I just connected the MBP to my Cinema Display and the external display shows fine in both OS X and Windows--Windows didn't even require me to go to the control panel.
This leads me to two thoughts: either it is something with the Thunderbolt to VGA adaptor (hard to believe, though, since it works for OS X) or it is something to do with the native resolution of the projector (equally hard to believe, as changing through various settings in Windows NOTHING happens on the external projector--it doesn't blink, go back or anything.)
Any ideas?

I wish I could find the discussion, but I cannot.
There was a discussion about the Windows 7 driver for the Thunderbolt port. The conclusion I believe was that it only outputs digital signals, not analog.
The other conclusions were:
A USB-VGA adapter adapter bypasses this limitation because the driver is in the adapter itself and works regardless of the OSX/Windows operating system in charge.
Run Windows under VM, where OSX is in charge and can create analog output through Thunderbolt
If only I could find that thread ...

ACD as main display under Windows/BootCamp while in clamshell possible?

Is there any way to run a BootCamp Windows XP Pro installation on an MBP using the ACD as main display while in clamshell mode? Currently the system refuses to wake up after I close the lid. I use a BT mouse/KB, but even with a USB mouse connected it wouldn't wake up. It seems like it would be possible, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Correct, there was no Gather Windows button.
I do have multiple adapters, but one is an Apple adapter which is, apparently, "passive" whilst the other is active. The passive adapter never works at all under MacOS X, but I haven't tried it under Windows. The "active" adapter works under Windows, but only shows the apple bootup logo under MacOS X, and then turns the display off.
I don't think that the mini displayport is faulty, because the second display plugged into it works perfectly through BootCamp.
I'll try thoroughly testing out all adapters tonight, and then try a different brand of display. I've seen a lot of posts about ViewSonics being flakey under MacOS X, so it's possible it could be on the display driver side of things. Maybe ViewSonic does something screwy signal-wise in their displays, and Windows is willing to deal with it but MacOS X isn't.
Oddly enough, the ViewSonic display I have was shipped with a single-link DVI cable, and it's always worked without a problem, even when plugged into the dual-link DVI port on the Mac Pro. So I don't believe that the display *itself* requires a complete dual-link connection to the computer.
I have much appreciation for all the help and suggestions. Thanks again.

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution?

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution? Or is Apple's implementation of HDCP (if it's there) incomplete?

I am having this same issue. Im not sure if this is the cause but I think this is keeping PowerDVD Ultra 11 from playing back Bluray under Windows 7 / Bootcamp

Open Dialog Box: full file name is not displayed in edit window under Windows 7

Only the last 16 characters of a file name are displayed in the edit window of a Common dialog box under Windows 7. What is the fix to this problem? I am coding in C/C++ and my compiler is Visual Studio 2005.

Hi warengharding624,
Based on your description, your issue is related about C/C++, since this forum is discussing about Windows Forms Controls, and I will move this thread to C++ forum.
In addition,Could you share us what the type of your project is?
Thanks for your understanding.

Curios text in one of three computers when displaying the very same mail in Outlook. I run Outlook 2003 under Windows 8.1.1

Curios text in one of three computers when displaying the very same mail in outlook.
I run Outlook 2003 under Windows 8.1.1 in all of my 3 computers. 70% of the mail from the same sender are shown OK in the actual computer and 100% of the very same mail are shown OK in the two other computers. If I forwards an OK received
mail from one of the “100%”, it will be received OK in the “70%” as well. For me the wrong displayed mail shows up as some kind of vector-descriptors (non converted html?). All links in blue are displayed ok and most of the text is readable in an unformatted
way. When it comes to logos etc it’s not readable at all. What to do?

Can a Apple Studio Display be used with a none Mac PC under Windows

Hello, can a 21 Inch Apple Mac Studio Display Monitor (Graphite) be used with a none Mac PC under Windows. Thanks Peter

what's a "none" Mac PC?
It can be done, but you'll need to purchase an ADC-DVI adapter in order to connect to the DVI port on the PCs video card.

Dreamweaver CC 2014: Does it scale under Windows (and a 4K-Display)

In April the renowned computer magazin c't published an article about 4K displays (issue 10/2014 page 123).
They wrote: No product from Adobe is usable (they really used that word) with a 4K display under Windows (7/8) because they do not scale.
The interface elements will be so tiny, that they cannot be used at all.
My question:
Did that changed with the latest version of Dreamweaver?
Thanks.

Thanks for checking that Preran
There are many other applications which can deal with the scaling method of windows 8.
Really hard to understand, why Adobe has decided not to support scaling.
The future will show, if that was a economically reasonable decision.
All potentiell buyers of Adobe products who own a 4K display will not buy a license.
I hope, that the impossibility of the usage with a 4K display is mentioned in the system requirements soon.
In

there's no hint.

Double Display on Imac doesn't work under windows, there's a solution?

Hi, I'm a mac user who needs windows for certain applications, so I've installed it with bootcamp on my Intel based Imac 20''.
It's very useful for me having 2 monitors to work also in windows, but there's a problem: when I boot under windows the imac transmits the signal (I can go over the main monitor with the mouse) but the 2nd monitor doesn't receive the signal and remains black!
Everything is tested and works properly on macos, so there's a possible solution?
Thanks
Davide

Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows XP.
Whereas, not everyone here with an Intel iMac has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & XP, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.
The Forum is at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology.
Here is a link;

Running two displays from MBP Retina under windows

I'm looking at purchasing a MBP Retina 13". I have two external monitors that can accept HDMI and DVI (neither can do displayport). Some software that I run requires me to sometimes boot into windows. Under windows 7, can I output a DVI signal from each of my thunderbolt ports? Do I just need to run two mini-displayport to DVI adapters? Or is not that simple? (both external monitors are 1900x1080)

Hi,
read the documentation:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/to_pdf?pathname=install.112/e24169.pdf
and you will find multiple errors, you probably did.
Especially the part on preparing storage.

JDeveloper 11g : pbs display projects under applications window

Hi,
I don't understand because the applications window doesn't diplay anything. I haven't the structure of the projects nor the others elements :-(
I use the 11g version under Windows XP. The first time i used Jdeveloper it works well but now, it wrong :-(
I tried to install a new version but it doesn't work better.
Is anyone can help me.
Thank you.
Bob

Hi,
I suspect that you may have undocked (floated) the application navigator at some point. There is a known bug in the 11g Preview release where doing this causes the application navigator to become blank.
The workaround is to close JDeveloper and delete the windowinglayout.xml file. You can find this in c:\documents and settings\username\Application Data\JDeveloper\system11.1.1.x.x.x\o.ide.
The bug has been fixed in our main codeline and the fix will be available in the production release.
Thanks,
Brian
