Hi

Is there a fix to get windows running cooler.
cuz the battery life says its runs a fraction what it does under osx.

I see I don't have the option to swop to the lower power 9400M GPU. Does anyone know if Apple are likely to fix this the in their next bootcamp update release? if they ever do!

What's running so hot? My cpu not doing anything. Not really doing any heavy gpu tasks. and the osx 9600M GT mode doesn't drain the power like it does in xp.

Have Apple done this on purpose. Makes you wonder.
QUOTE Thanks
