The MacBook Pro (MBP) is HOT, ... no seriously its bloody hot! To the point you can't even use the keyboard without burning your fingertips.
First I thought, must be a XP problem on the MBP, but its a serious problem on both Operating systems, but yeah worse on XP.
Anyways, the way to attack this is in OSX is with smcFanControl, but under XP I haven't found a proper tool to manage the fans like in OSX.
The InputRemapper, comes with fancontrol but just doesnt do anything. So for now the only way to stay cool, is to use smcFanControl in OSX, set it to a higher fan level, reboot directly in XP without turning the power off, then the fans will stay at the RPM set in OSX. :(
It would be good if BootCamp will add this to its features when booting into XP.
