Heats up a lot on booting in Windows Vista

Hello,
Have any of you guys faced this problem?
I have been noticing it for a past few days.
When I boot in Leopard it is fine but when I boot in Windows Vista the MBP becomes very hot.
Is this natural? Will it affect my notebook?
Thanks

This is normal. The reason is that under Windows Apple drivers don't have the same access to control the hardware as it does under Mac OS X (for obvious reasons) to manage power usage and heat. It's no problem to your MBP, just your lap.

Dual booting with Windows Vista/OSX 10.5 Leopard with 2 GPU's?

Can I install a Nvidia GTX280 graphics card in a Mac Pro and use it to play games when booted into Windows Vista and use the included ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT card for booting into OSX? Or is this not possible? Is there any other way to install a GTX 280 card in a Mac? I would really love to buy a Mac Pro but need to be able to install a GTX 280 in it to be able to play games on higher settings than any of the available Apple supported cards.
I know this question may have been asked before so I am apologizing in advance...
Thanks,

My next question is can I use a third party sound card, such as the Auzentech X-Fi Prelude when booted into Windows?

My IMAC will not boot to Windows Vista

I can not get my IMAC to boot to Windows Vista. I restart the computer, hold the option key, and it keeps getting hung up on the blank white screen that comes up when you first turn the computer on. It just sits on this screen forever and never pulls up the two icons that give you a choice of whether you want to boot to the mac side or pc side. If I don't hold the option key down, it boots to the MAC OS just fine.
I've never had this problem before and I haven't made any kind of major changes to the computer that I can think of, since the last time I booted to windows. Any help would be appreciated!

I have asked the Hosts to move your post to the intel forum, you are in the PPC area.

Satellite L500D won't boot up Windows Vista

Hi. I have a Satellite L500D which failed to boot up Windows Vista (Home Premium). It shut down normally the previous night, with no power interruptions or other abnormal events during shutdown. The following day, it failed to boot Windows and went into a diagnostic screen. This diagnostic attempted to resolve and fix the problem, but failed. It didn't give me the option of Windows "Safe Mode" either.
As the laptop was under warranty, I returned it to the retailer. By hitting F8 at bootup we got into Safe Mode, then copied my folders to an external hard drive. They then "recovered" the laptop (not sure if that meant re-formatting the hard drive and re-installing Vista?)
Q. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and is there a preventative measure?
I would really appreciate any advice on this problem.
Regards
Mark Brymner
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You asked if that has ever happened to someone before. It's almost like asking if you ever had a flat tire. It's happened to someone at least once, or in my case, many of times.
You didn't mention if there was a specific error code, but most failure to boot into Windows problems are because of a corrupt or missing boot file(s). I know within the last few months, Microsoft has pushed some updates that cause people's machines not to boot properly. There really is nothing you can do about it. Just ensure you are not shutting the machine down while the computer is updating.
Keep your important documents/pictures/music backed up just in case.

Mac mini, boot camp, windows vista/windows 7, DVI to HDMI, no display

I have a mac mini from 2008 on which I have put windows Vista via boot camp. I have connected the mini using DVI to HDMI, to my Sony Bravia 1080p HDTV.
When I log into the mac 10.6.2, all seems fine and I can see the display alright.
When I log into Windows Vista, I cannot. The display stays black even though I hear the Windows startup sound.
I tried force-upgrading to Windows 7 and the same thing. In fact at some point I can see some of the stuff (like when starting in safe mode), but as soon as it boots up, the display goes blank.
Normally I can see the display up to the point where it says loading Microsoft windows (with the small progress bar) and then, nothing.
Any clues what may be happening?

Dual Boot with Windows Vista

Hi
I am a complete n00b with Mac. The director at my company requested me to set up her MacBook (running Mac OSX 10.4.11) to dualboot with Windows Vista 32 bit. I have been searching Google and I cannot find anything.
Can someone please run me through what I'll need and how exactly to do it?
Thank you in advance

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Check out the BootCamp set up guide before installing Windows on a Mac.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf
As Kurt mentions... you must be running Leopard 10.5.x to do this.

Boot camp windows vista

does anyone know if windows vista will run off of boot camp?

I think thats not correct. HP is selling there notebook with intel core duo and the say are VISTA CAPABLE .
This is what they say
"What's a Windows Vista Capable PC?
The next generation Microsoft operating system—Microsoft Windows Vista—is coming soon. What will Windows Vista mean for you? It will offer new levels of ease, security and reliability, a new interface, and simple ways to organize and search for information on your PC.
We've worked with Microsoft to help ensure that the PC you buy today can run Windows Vista when it's available. All of our new notebook and desktop PCs will be able to run Windows Vista* when properly configured.
Windows Vista will be available in versions ranging from Windows Vista Home Basic for entry-level home users to Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Business, for those needing more robust features and functionality*.
*Not all Windows Vista features are available for use on all Windows Vista Capable PCs. All Windows Vista Capable PCs will run the core experiences of Windows Vista, such as innovations in organizing and finding information, security, and reliability. Some features available in premium editions of Windows Vista—like the new Windows Aero user interface—require advanced or additional hardware. Check www.windowsvista.com/getready for details. "

Restart vs Shutdown booting into Windows Vista

Is anyone else having performance issues with bootcamp. Right now i'm on a MBP 2.2ghz model and I have this strange problem where if i restart out of OSX and boot into Vista i have a dramatic drop in performance (COD4 plays at about 10-20 FPS where if shutdown and load windows Vista i can run Call of Duty 4 at 90FPS.
I've been trying to find an answer for weeks?
I was also wondering, if you hold ALT when u click on the apple button in the menu bar, is there a difference between "restart..." and "restart"?

I have not noticed performance differences between restart and shutdown, but suggest you fire up Task Manger and look for CPU hogs or differences. Also, perhaps there's a problem with one of the Apple services when you reboot. You can check up on or [disable them|http://www.vistarewired.com/2007/02/18/services] to see if it helps with performance. Good luck. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
As for the ellipses after menu items, in just about every OS an ellipsis indicates that choosing that item will result in a dialog rather than immediate action. Holding option will remove the ellipsis, indicating that the action will be taken without confirmation.

ICloud won't boot under Windows Vista SP2

I have installed iCloud with no problems, but it won't boot up. I can see its process in the Task Manager, but it won't show up.

Hello Sjazbec,
I know iCloud is a background running process. Precisely is the iCloud Control Pannel what will not show up when I double click on it, so I have not been able to configure it. I have Outlook 2007 installed. Do I need to have the iPhone plugged in the PC to be able to configure iCloud? Do I need to have Outlook opened?
As a summary, when I double click in the iCloud icon in the Control Pannel, nothing happens.
Thank you very much.

Dual boot (Windows Vista + Archlinux)

First hello people, this is my first post.I need some guidance here. I installed Archlinux in my laptop ( DELL XPS M1330) from a USB stick memory everything went smooth until i got to the grub part. I did it as the wiki mention I installed the grub at the /boot partition :
/dev/sda1 * Windows Vista NTFS ( Marked as boot)
/dev/sda2 Win Backups NTFS
/dev/sda3 /boot ext2
/dev/sda5 /SWAP ----
/dev/sda6 / ext3
I uncomment the windows part of the menu.lst . At boot Archlinux boots normally but when I want to boot linux , it blinks and takes me back to grub . Then with cfdisk I toggled to boot at /boot and unmarjed the original (Windows Vista ) and the same result then I toggled both /boot and Windows vista and the same result . What do you think I should do ?? I'm lost !! Thanks people.

aragorncito wrote:At boot Archlinux boots normally but when I want to boot linux , it blinks and takes me back to grub .
Do you mean when you try to boot Windows it blinks back to grub, or when you want to boot linux it brings you back to grub?
Did you check your menu.lst to make sure that you adjusted what partitions it is looking for (remember, grub starts counting at 0, so sda1 will be (hd0,0) in grub)

Satellite L300-135 not booting into windows!

bought it about 2 years ago everything worked perfectly until today where it's even unable to boot into windows vista...I just turn it on when the windows loading bar is loading then it shows blue screen for 0.1 sec and it resets itself... even the safe mode wouldn't start and restore mode (last good known config) couldn't help it to start...i tried using an ubuntu linux live cd to save my datas but couldn't boot either, gave an error stating something as abnormal.
so where's the problem ?
Windows boot manager tried to find the problem and is telling me this:
status: 0xc00000e9
info: An unexpected I/O error has occured.

> so where's the problem ?
Who knows??? Do you think its so easy to say whats exactly wrong without running any tests???
Maybe its just a software issue but a hardware issue (RAM, motherboard, etc..) can be possible too.
As I understood your message, you want to access the data and to backup the necessary files
Well, the Toshiba recovery disk would format the whole HDD therefore you should backup the data before usage of recovery disk.
You could remove the HDD from the notebook and could connect it to another computer using an external USB HDD case.
After backup, you could use the recovery disk to reinstall the Windows.

Missing BOOTMGR Windows Vista No Disk

Hello,
I need some help. After doing a "Factory Recovery," my laptop won't boot to windows vista. After booting, it won't finish the "Factory Recovery" process, and it ends with a black screen with the words "Missing BOOT MGR Crtl+Alt+Esc."
The laptop(G60-125NR) didn't come with anything. I HAVE NO DISK OF WINDOWS VISTA. It was only already installed in the laptop.
Can anyone help me with this?
Here are the details.
I tried pressing F11 or F10 - the factory recovery screen - and used both the hard drive partition and then the recovery disks I created before the factory recovery-thing. Hard drive ended with error 1005 and using the disk I got error 1002. Both telling me to contact HP.
Purchased a Boot Disk and it got me to System Recovery Options. There, I could not select on any operating system. I don't even know which Drives to add. Plus, as I was trying to see in the folderfs, nothing was comming up. So I just clicked on Next and tried the Startup Repair option. After a while it said that Startup Repair cannot repair this computer automatically. It still says MissingBootManager on the details.
At the Windows Boot Manager screen,
Windows Setup [EMS Enabled]
But on the tools;
File \boot\memtest.exe
Status: oxcoooooof
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupted.
I hope you can help me. Thank you.

Actually there are no comments regarding Vista version under notes for 10.2.0.3.
If You look at certify matrix under
http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/metalink/index.html
and search by Platform, then under Vista and 10gR2 You will see following notes:
Oracle Database (EE, SE, PE and Client) are supported on these platforms:
Business edition
Enterprise Edition
Ultimate Edition
Home edition is not supported!
But what I can suggest.
Look into listner.log - are there any errors.
Try to restart listener from the command line
lsnrctl stop
lsnrctl start
Try to recreate listener service

Tips for blue screen (BSOD) errors with Windows Vista and Intel Turbo Memory on T61/T61p

Important note: The symptoms and solutions described below address only a small subset of the possible causes for blue screen errors, aka BSOD. This information can help address blue screen errors specifically related to Turbo Memory, but may not solve errors related to other issues. Please read through the instructions completely, make sure they apply to your system, and after attempting the solutions please post back with your feedback for the community.
Some users may experience random blue screen errors with ThinkPad
systems running Windows Vista with Intel Turbo Memory hardware. These
blue screens may occur during normal usage on the system or they may
occur when booting into Windows Vista. Blue screens related to the
Intel Turbo Memory hardware may reference a stop code of 8086 with
memory address locations of {0, 0, 0, 0}.
There are two main steps that you can take to help resolve blue screen issues related to Intel Turbo Memory.
Step 1: Update Intel Turbo Memory Driver
If the driver version is before version 1.0.1.1004-7.0.3.1001, please
update to this version.
To determine what version of the Intel Turbo Memory driver is installed:
1.    Click Start, then click Control Panel.
2.    Click System and Maintenance.
3.    Click System.
4.    Click Device Manager.
5.    Expand the Storage controllers category.
6.    Double-click Intel Flash Cache Logic Chip.
7.    Click the Driver tab. Then you will see the driver version (for example, 1.0.1.1004).
The new driver and installation instructions can be found here.
Note: The Intel Matrix Storage Driver is updated with this package.
Step 2: BIOS version
If your BIOS version is older than those listed below, please update to the version listed.
How to check your BIOS version:
Turn off the system.
Turn on the system.
While the To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button message is displayed at the lower-left area of the screen, press the F1 key.
The
BIOS Setup Utility menu will be displayed. If you have set a supervisor
password, the BIOS Setup Utility menu appears after you enter the
password.
Check BIOS Version and Embedded Controller Version.
Turn off the system.
System BIOS versions:
ThinkPad T61/T61p (14.1 inch widescreen with IEEE 1394 model) - BIOS version 1.22 (7LET52WW)
Please
remember that these updates do not solve every possible system blue
screen, but they do resolve several problems related to the Intel Turbo
Memory driver.

Thanks Tim,
I do have my T61p fully up-to-date to the latest drivers and updates (via System Update and the Drivers&Software web page when the former is not that up-to-date).
At the moment the most recurrent problem is this:

My other angst is the boot-time chkdsk hang-up problem:
http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=52765&highlight=chkdsk
I just wonder if this purely a Vista issue when using NV cache, the disk spinning down at almost exactly 1 hour from the beginning of the chdsk operation seems too much of a coincidence.
This is my T61p configuration:

Dear Tim,
First off, many thanks for the tips for resolving BSOD with Vista + Turbo Memory on X61. I've been suffering from this BSOD for countless times since I bought in my X61 7673-CW9 in April 2008.
Even prior to having the pleasure to visit this wonderful forum, I followed both steps as indicated, and updated my Intel Turbo Memory driver to 1.5.0.1013 and my BIOS to 7NETB4WW (2.14). However, the BSOD recurrs.
For the past two months, I've recovered my system to factory default settings using Rescue and Recovery for over twenty times, each time with the latest Intel Turbo Memory driver and BIOS. Notwithstanding that, BSOD recurrs.
During these painful experiences, I tried two options: 1) making my X61 up-to-date by using System Update and Windows Update (including Vista SP1 or excluding Vista SP1); 2) keeping my X61 the status as factory default (i.e. without updating through either System Update or Windows Update (the automatic/scheduled update function of both is turned off)). In either case, BSOD recurrs.
I'm 100% positive that the BSOD does not arise from any hardware or software/firmware I install. I never install any hardware (e.g. RAM). And, it is not caused by any software/firmware I install: the clear and unequivocal evidence is that at one time,I encountered BSOD while having restored back to factory setting and booting for the first time.
I live in Taiwan, and I seldom heard this BSOD here.  All of my friends (as most of Taiwan residents) using X61 operate in Traditional Chinese environment, whereas I operate in English environment. In Taiwan, when booting for the first time after purchase/recovery, the Windows Vista Business system provides for lanuage choice (Traditional Chinese or English), and, once chosen, the language cannot be altered later on (unless, of course, the system is restored back to factory default settings).
My system specs are the same as the day I purchased it and are listed below (as I'm not sure if my machine type X61 7673-CW9 is applicable outside Taiwan):
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8300 @ 2.4GHz
Memory: 1.00 G.B.
System: Windows Vista Business (32-bit)
Hard Drive: 160 G.B. @ 7,200 r.p.m.
And, of course, with Intel Turbo Memory 1 G.B.
I contacted the Lenovo support staff here in Taiwan for countless times, but they seem to be clueless. I learned that some friends at this forum downgraded their OS back to Windows XP, but I chose not to. The reason is simple: my purchase price for X61 7673-CW9 includes the Intel Turbo Memory, which cannot function under Windows XP (at least so far).
Therefore, I just wish to share my experience here and perhaps I can get some advice from you and other friends here. Any advice will be tremendously and enormously appreciated.

Are you saying you're running Windows in BootCamp or Windows as a Virtual Machine? You can increase the fan speed on the Mac using smcFanControl and use the software OGELTHORPE recommended to observe improvements.
smcFanControl is a Mac application and doesn't work in Windows, but if you set a higher minimum fan speed (which is how smcFanControl works) while running OS X, when you reboot into a BootCamp partition, that minimum speed tends to be carried over.
