Hello:

I've had my macbook for about one month. Within the first week I installed windows XP (bootcamp) with no issues. I switch between xp and leopard every so often with no problems. In addition, the fan has always been quiet sometimes kicking on for a few moments.

Just yesterday I was running XP and everything was great. I switched over to Leopard so I could use itunes. I noticed the fan kicked on and could easily be heard. I kept spinning for over 30 minutes.

I restarted leopard, but within 4-5 minutes the fans kicked on.
I turned it off, and left it alone for 30 minutes. Once started in leopard the fan kicks again within 4-5 minutes.
I removed the battery, and held down the power button for 5-10 seconds...that didn't work. :Angry-Tongue:

Funny thing is, that once I reboot back to windows XP, the fan is nearly silent. Any suggestions why this is happening? :Oops:

Thanks,

VJ
