Question: My Blackbook also has a Bootcamp partition running Windows - is there a way to take that image and migrate it to my MB Air? I'd rather not have to purchase the Superdrive and re-install/setup the Windows OS on my Air....
I want to stop using updated Mac OS X 10.5.8 (I think it happens in 10.7.4 too IIRC)'s Flurry screen saver and just let Mac OS X 10.5.8 blank/sleep its screen to save energy, not make Macs (Mac Mini, MacBook Pro, etc.) hot especially in the heat waves, and use less resources. I noticed making display (not the computer) sleep and then waking does not ask me to log in like a screen saver would do. Is there a way to do this for sleeping displays?Â
Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.8), 2.4 Ghz; A1260 model; 15" size.
Is there a product that I can either install or if it already exists on my Unibody MB, how can I see the temp and CPU utilization. I have CoconutBattery for my MB but I am looking for a Visual Aid to see CPU and Temps, is this possible.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got my Penryn 45nm MacBook last week and wanted to share some of my observed idle temps.
CPU- 39 degrees
Northbridge- 39 degrees
How do they compare with the other 45nm and 65nm MBs?
Post your Air size and config for comparisons Here is mine: Mac Air 13' Fully spec'd 4gigz/2.13 c2d Hooked up to the new 27 cinema display - air display off/closed. I'm using istat nano to report: Currently surfing with chrome, couple tabs open, itunes streaming mp3
HD 40c
CPU 60-61
Heatsink 39
Enclosure 33
Northbridge 54
Mem 38
Power supply 35
The only thing that really changes drastically for me is the CPU temp. I mostly hover around 48 at idle.
The new Macbook air 13" ultimate has just arrived. Great new laptop, but if i play two 1080p youtube-videos the temps go as high as:
Cpu: 187F / 85 C
Northbridge: 154F / 67 C
fan: 6495 RPM (loud)
With a 75% cpu using rate.
(I read this out with the istat pro widget)
EDIT: Room temp = 20 C
This is not normal. Way to hot. Do you guys have the same Temps?!!
I've done a search but couldn't find what I'm looking for. To any 13" MBP owners could you post your idle temps preferably via iStatPro? I'm interested to see how much cooler the system runs with the new 320M inside.

i just played 1 hour straight of starcraft 2, i checked temps on the end. 80 degrees celsius, fans were at 4000RPM, i believe 6200RPM or something is max. Is that normal, room was pretty hot.
Recently my computer has started to run slowly in things like games and the only time that it runs normaly is when I restart my computer and then it gets slow again after about 5 min. My computer's cpu has been running at about 77-87 deggres celcius. Is that the normal running temps of a 2010 13-inch macbook pro? I have asked on some other places and they have said that it is dust in my comp that is heating the cpu up and therefore making it run slower.

I occasionally get the BSOD sometimes on the Windows XP side of things in Boot Camp. I always use a mouse on the Windows side, as the trackpad is very glitchy and buggy. Sometimes, when I use the mouse for a prolonged period of time, I accidently touch the trackpad forgetting all of the sudden that i had the mouse (or i use it to scroll down) and the whole thing blue screens on me. It has happened 8 times already, each time blue screening after touching the mouse. I don't know why, but I find out that the mouse drivers are the one that is messing up my Windows XP SP3.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Macbook Pro 15" , C2D 2.33ghz. I have the 7100 version of Windows 7 and everything worked perfectly except for the sound.
No matter which bootcamp driver I try or even Realtek's own vista one nothing works.
I downloaded the bootcamp 2.1 drivers and everything installed correctly , including the realtek ones. All the hardware looks fine in device manager but I dont hear anything out.
Should the default be speakers? It seems that it keeps the driver as microsofts own and it doesnt say anything about realtek. Could that be the problem?
I did not try the microphone jack yet but will in a few minutes.
Even if there is a hack , Im willing to try it. What is the exact audio chipset on this model of macbook pro?
I have today received a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium, and am looking forward to installing it on my MacBook (early unibody version with Core 2 Duo processor, recently upgraded to Snow Leopard - version MacBook 5,1 - with 2.4GHz Processor and 4GB RAM).
The question is simple, but I am utterly confused when searching for the answer...!
Should I install the 32bit or the 64bit version of windows? (both the disks are in the box). I would like a smooth installation, and realise that 32bit should work no problem. However if all the drivers are available for 64bit windows, and it works then I see no reason not to install that version. I am confused because there is reference on the Apple website of this version of the MacBook not being supported for 64bit despite having a 64bit processor (??) Also the vast majority of the information on the Apple website seems to refer to Vista 64bit. I imagine that this will be quite confusing for many users, as it has been for me!
I will only install windows once, and would obviously like to install the potentially faster OS if it will be straightforward, and everything will work as it should (have read about problems with the iSight/backlit keyboard etc. - but these may now be fixed).
I noticed my battery life and temps a higher then normal, decided to purchase and scan with virus barrier X6 and up came a iservices.b2 trojan. I removed it and now I notice my temps 10c lower and battery life about 1 hour more. This trojan was sitting resident on my mac for a little while now without my knowledge. Intego says it is mostly bundled with pirated software, but I have nothing pirated, everything I purchased. Now I am trying to find where this came from. If you have high temps and a low battery life unexpectedly....scan your machine.
View 24 Replies View RelatedWhenever I use something cpu/graphic intensive, the temp shoots up and stays up. Normally I would idle at around 36C, but after I use youtube or play any game, the temps would stay at around 55C even after exiting all the programs and is at 99% idle. It's fine when I'm plugged in, but when I'm using my battery, I only get about 2.5 hours with the brightness on very low and wifi/bt off. Checking the stats on iStat, the battery is using 19Watts at idle.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to try out Windows 7. During this process though I deleted my winXP partition. When I went to create a new BootCamp partition in The BootCamp SetUp Assisstant, it failed to create the partition on my harddrive.
I was greeted with the error, "BootCamp SetUp assistant failed to yada yada yada, please backup and reformat your harddrive."
So my question is do I really have to reinstall Mac OS X? (I backup with TimeMachine so it won't be a big deal but still thats a very long process.) Do you guys have any tips or anything to get Mac OS X to partition my main HDD?
Maybe I'm just over thinking this, but Apple never posted a KB article about how to upgrade an existing bootcamp partition with the new snow leopard bootcamp 3.0 drivers. I'm assuming if you already have bootcamp 2.1 you boot up in boot camp and then insert the snow leopard disc in order to upgrade the drivers to 3.0 correct? Or do I have to erase my stupid bootcamp partition and reinstall it all over again using the new leopard boot camp assistant in order to get to 3.0?

He also said the base CPU is fine for my purpose. So the only upgrade I would go with is the SSD. Is that reasonable? I've read some conflicting posts - "windows is a memory hog" to "windows 7 runs fine on 1gb netbooks".

how exactly is that achieved?
anyone tried it, and any benefits of bypassing bootcamp?
and doing it without bootcamp, will rEFIt still work?
This includes USB Ethernet driver support.

I couple of months ago I installed Windows 7 onto my Macbook Pro. All went fine. I then bought MS Office Professional 2010 but before I bought Office a tried to download a trial version from Office website. I realized it would take 6 hours to install and so cancelled it. I then tried installing Office cd that I bought from Journeyed and it won't install.
I could see MS office when I go to all programs and thought I may have messed it all up when trying to download the trial version. Anyway now I have removed Windows 7 as I want to try installing it again to see if Office 2010 will install. Removing Windows 7 was fine but Bootcamp is no longer on my Mac. It has just vanished!
