MacBook Pro Overheating under bootcamp
- I have called Apple Support - they were not much help save to tell me not to place the computer on my lap.
- I do not have the laptop on my lap instead always placing it on a desk.
- I have tried to elevate it slightly off the desk to allow more air flow
- Last time I actually had it elevated and placed on a cookie sheet to dissipate the heat.
- SMCFan is certainly a help, but it doesn't stop the problem either.
Anyone else have this problem to the same extent? Solutions? With the exception of creating a large fan assembly to force air through the machine it seems that it just won't run for very long without shutting itself down.
For such an expensive machine, this is a rather large irritation.
