Om meer Macbook Pro bezitters van de oplossing mee te laten genieten doen wij onderstaande post in het engels! Het betreft hier een oplossing voor het oververhitten van de laptop in Windows via Bootcamp. Doordat de ventilatoren niet starten tijdens grafisch intensieve taken. De oplossing is tot stand gekomen doordat ik met mijn eigen Macbook Pro Unibodu (helaas) ook het B.S.O.D probleem heb mogen ondervinden.
I solved the heat-issue in Windows Vist32 (tested and worked!)
This should also work in XP, XP64 and VISTA 64 although not tested.
Goto the Nvidia website and download the latest notebook drivers
latest MBP notebook drivers from Nvidia
Uninstall your old notebook drivers through device-manager and restart.
Now install the Nvidia notebook drivers you just downloaded and restart.
NOW THE IMPORTANT PART!!!
After numerous hours of testing I realised that installing new Nvidia display drivers overwrite some Nvidia chipset drivers. This causes your fans not spinning at all under heavy GPU load.
THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE BECAUSE TEMPERATURES CAN EASILY PASS 100 degrees celsius.
Now for the fix in four easy steps!
1. Under Windows insert your MacOS original install-disc (the one with the bootcamp drivers)
2. Choose to explore the Bootcamp folder.
3. Now open the drivers folder and browse to the Nvidia folder.
4. Now install the package called nvidiachipset. These come in all flavors (XP, XP64, VISTA, VISTA64) choose the correct version for your OS.
After installation a reboot is not even necessary. Start your favorite game and notice the extreme humming of your speeding fans! Should sound like music!
So remember. Every time you update your graphics drivers A REINSTALL OF THE CHIPSET DRIVERS FOR YOUR UNIBODY MBP MUST BE DONE!! If you don't the fans won't come up under heavy load which will result in a BUSTED GPU!!!
