Hello Apple people,

Whenever I run BootCamp Windows 8.1, my MBP's fans are spinning like jet turbos. Is this normal for all old and new MBP models? I don't get this issue from Yosemite or Sierra and even if I run Adobe programs the fans don't spin as much as they do on Windows partition. My old MBP has less trouble overheating thanks to a new SSD. But the laptop will make awful fan noises when I switch back to Windows partition. It'll remain pretty darn noisy during the Windows update and regular software installation. Also my MBP overheats more often on Windows partition. I'm concerned about hardware components, such as the logic board and RAM, getting deteriorated due to the heat. The overheating is definitely not caused by accumulated dust (there's some dust hanging on the cooling fan duct but it's still not enough to cause any issue). Should I make some changes on the power setting by going to Control Panel -> Power plan-> Advanced power setting -> processor power management -> minimum processor state and then set it for around 5%? Someone mentioned these steps from an old BootCamp group forum. Does anyone have suggestions and recommendations? Are fan noise and overheating problems common for MBPs running on BootCamp Windows? Are these issues something related to BootCamp?

Thank you in advance.

- Oct 02, 2016 My 2015 Macbook pro 13' recently started sounding like a jet engine when hot (under load). Obviously the fan was making that noise, but it didn't make sense since the laptop is only 4 months old.

Loud Macbook Fan
- Hi guys,I just bought Bose Companion 5 speakers and they produce very nice sound for what I need it (home use). Download cooking books for free. The speakers should be connected to PC via USB cable for full performance, however there is also a Control Pad that has AUX jack as an input. When I use Traktor and output sound to Bose Companion 5 with RCA to AUX cable and set audio setup in Traktor DJ as Traktor S2 , everything works fine except the fact that there is some single tone frequency noise heard in the speakers once I plug the AUX cable in the Bose’s Control Pad input. However, if I change the audio setup to Bose sound system and plug the RCA to AUX cable into MacBook Pro, the sound is more powerful and clear (and no noise of course). The problem is, that I cannot use the headphones with this set up or I don’t know how to set it up to use the headphones for song syncing. Is this even possible ? If not, can I at least get rid of the noise with the first set up if I buy a better quality RCA to AUX cable ?
I have 14 days to make up my mind if I’m gonna keep Bose Companion 5 or return it, so any help will be appreciated !Thanks in advance!Assuming you set everything correctly, this means the switch on the back for the RCA’s is set to main not booth, any RCA to mini-jack cable should do (providing it is a regular left+right RCA to stereo mini-jack).It makes complete sense that you get headphone cues only when using the S2 for sound. Sometimes (not sure no Traktor anymore as I ditched it years ago) you can set the software so that main sound goes to one place (speakers through PC out) and headphones to your S2 for cueing. Still not an optimal way to go, not in the least because you can end up with different latencies.The other thing that is wise to do, is to disconnect the Bose from USB so the only connection is the aux in on the control pad.For testing purposes you an of course eliminate the cable as source by trying another one.
Also you can try borrowing a pair of active monitor speakers and hooking those up with the Bose fully disconnected and turned off. That would eliminate the Bose as source if you still have those noises.Personally I am no fan of using movie/gaming PC speakers for DJ-ing, period. Too often not a good match. Also price-wise you don’t have to. A pair of KRK 6s will run you about 270 euro as opposed to 400 for the Bose. And you can hook them up with balanced Jack-Jack cables which should normally eliminate any cable induced problems.Should you need speakers that handle your other PC sound needs too, then I could suggest the Yamaha AG06 mixer. It has a built-in sound card, RCA’s for your RCA-RCA controller connection, an extra aux in (should you like to hook up iPad/iPhone or something) and lot’s of other features. If you play out in the future, it will be great for hooking up balanced PA speakers. You also get volume control right on your desktop. I have one sitting on my desk (well the smaller AG03) and I plug in my controller to the aux and my KRKs are connected Jack-Jack balanced.Just my 3 cents as usual.You are welcome. The KRK’s you linked to are 10″!!! and 3-way instead of 2. So very logical they are expensive.I can see the size issue. As for the KRK’s being “reference” monitors, they can provide plenty of loud when used as nearfield speakers (i.e. less than 3 feet from your ears). But if you play them loud for too long your can experience some ear fatigue of course.

Most likely your system is very dusty and needs a good cleaning. Get a small soft paint brush and a can of can’ed air. Pop off the bottom cover and then carefully dust out the fans and logic board. Use the can’ed air to blow the mess out of the system. Don’t blow to hard or long on the fan. MacBook Pro 15'.
