When you reload the KEXT, they should spin immediately back down to what you'd expect with the machine idle.
Thirty seconds or a minute later, the fans should ramp up. With your computer idle, unload the fan control KEXT. You're not going to overheat the CPU by failing to load the drivers.

Regarding power management, AFAIK, the worst case scenario would be if the SMC drivers didn't load, in which case after the SMC's watchdog timer fires, the SMC should bring all the fans up to full blast. You apparently do need Apple drivers to use the internal keyboard and trackpad on laptops, though.
I run XP though, as I don't need or want the extra features of "7" and the smaller footprint of XP makes it nicer for my needs. Windows 7 works fine on my mid 2009 17" MBP using the vista drivers.
With the Mac I have OS X for my daily stuff and much of my engineering design work, and occasionally use Windows for the few things I can't do on the mac. There is a lot of scientific packages are just plain don't exist on the Mac. I need windows around to do things like PCB design, because there are no viable Mac alternatives. I do use parallels for light CAD work and such, and I just boot from the BootCamp partition using parallels. Plus the fascist copy protection in the CAD programs makes it difficult to run in parallels. All those really benefit from direct booting into windows. I use BootCamp for playing games (I still play a lot of UT2004) and for doing CAD (Autodesk Inventor and PCB design). Or if MS Windows must be run occasionally, then Bootcamp is an effective way to do so. If one buys a mac, and really can't stand OS X, one can always go back to MS Windows.

After the second trial Windows informed me about new the virtual box USB driver and, it worked.Ī) virtual box USB driver in OS X is missing or buggy, and/orī) driver and OS X version of virtual box do not communicate properly.I always saw bootcamp as a gimmick to encourage MS Windows users to switch to Apple Hardware. This was, perhaps, due to the fact that I did not have virtual box USB driver installed on XP-host. When I tried this for the first time on XP, I experienced somewhat similar misbehaviour.

I desperately tried manual unmount, but it did not help. When using OS X, LaCie is never unmounted from the host, and I believe therefore LaCie stays grayed in virtualbox. Unmount+mount takes 20-30 seconds, but it works. In XP the virtualbox unmounts LaCie from the host and mounts it to guest Linux automatically. In OS X My LaCie USB hard drive (FAT32) is/stays "gray" while in XP I can access it. I have two hosts OS X and XP running Ubuntu 9.10 guest with one processor. I obtained the vendor and product ID for the flash drive:ĭevice VendorID/ProductID: 0x0951/0x1605 (Kingston Technology Company) This is the Device Instance ID reported by Windows Device Manager when I plug in my Data Traveler flash drive: Under the device properties, I notice that windows doesn't know the vendor ID or the product ID for the USB device. In both cases, windows complains it is an unknown device. I have tried a Kingston Data Traveler flash drive and a Safenet Sentinel Security Key. Any USB device I connect to the Virtual Machine shows up as an unknown device under windows.

My machine is a 2009 MacBook Pro with 4GB of RAM. I have a 64-bit Snow Leopard Host running Windows XP guest with USB 2.0 enabled.
