Windows runs perfectly fine on my MBP, but it does some odd stuff. When I boot in windows, a red light emulates from the audio in jack, and when I plug my headphones in the speakers still play; along with the headphones. The computer's closed-lid setup also doesn't work, but I'm sure I'd just have to fidget with it; however I'm lazy and that will never get done. Anyone else having any of this?

Read the bootcamp FAQ, Its all in there.

By the way, Windows in itself is an anomaly. Don't worry about it. 🙄
 
Isn't the red like coming from the audio port the optical? I think under Mac OS it only turns the optical on when an optical jack is plugged in.
 
Go into Sound Settings control panel in windows and turn off spdif/optical output. Hey presto red light gone.

It's all in the readme.
