I have an early 2008 macbook Pro 15".
The issue I have is that the fans run constantly at 6000-RPM regardless of load or operating system (XP or OSX). I monitor the temps and they all stay below 38C. It started about a week ago. Any ideas? I dont think that the OS is hosed, as it is present in both. I suspect a hardware issue, but since it is a mac and not a PC, I do not want to open it up like I would a PC or SparcStation.
Anyhow, I have an appointment with a "genius" tomorrow to have them take a look. Thank goodness for the warranty. Time to get the OneCare for this before it decides to brick itself at 91 days. This will be the 3rd service for this particular unit. I hope this is not a fortelling of things to come.
