Dear guys,
Please be patient with me, since English is not my native tongue.
I'm now to mac (7 days ago), I downloaded the bootcamp and install windows xp, everything works great only 1 problem though, the fan doesn't stop spinning, so it drains my battery half the time compared to macosx. is there any way to control it or have a power management for windows? One more question though, how to capture screen if I'm not using external keyboard, only using keyboard on my new macbook pro?
Thanks
 
You could try something like SMC Fan Control to control the fan speeds. To do a full screen capture, hit Cmnd-Shift-3. If you hit 4 instead of 3, it will let you choose what part of the screen to take a shot of.
 
So, there's no apps/way to make battery longer for windows in bootcamp?
Thanks for the info to capture screen
