MPB Bootcamp, XP, HDD, Motion Sensor, weird stuff happening...

Okay so this is my problem:

After taking the MBP for a little ride in my backpack, I sit down, boot into windows and take it for a spin. Any game. After a couple of seconds into the actual 3d stuff it hangs. The sound is frozen, the mouse is frozen, the only thing I CAN do is hold the power button down.

But then, here comes the weird part.

Say I boot again in windows, same issue. And again, same issue. And then I boot into OS X. Hey, where's my "Untitled" windows partition?!?! I can't see it. Okay, Disk Utility shows me this:



There it is, "disk0s3". That's kinda weird, until now, it was Untitled. And of course, I couldn't change its name, for whatever reason.

More problems:

When I click "Verify Disk", it says, unable to unmount. Dang. It's written in red even.

Okay, after a half an hour, I try windows again, and this time it works like a charm. But the MBP's been on my desk for this whole time.

After playing my usual games, I boot back into OS X and there you go "Untitled" partition, just like normal.

Now I can't get to the bottom of this. My only reasonable explanation would be this:

I've read that there's a motion sensor which parks the HDD head to protect the data, if there's such thing and it actually works, this could be it.

Windows does a fairly poor job of acting on the fans, and that's only in SOME games, I wonder if this beloved motion sensor acts when my computer's booted into windows and blocks the HDD and that's why it fails? Other than that, the RAM is okay, the CPUs are okay, at least as far as I know...

Otherwise, I have no explanation. What about you guys?

There's certainly a couple of things I'd love to do in windows:

1- Control the fans
2- Get the keys to work with FN-F1 when I want to do brightness, instead of pressing FN-F1 to get help.
3- Disable the plick-plock sound of the remote

And of course 4- disable or do something about this sensor, because maybe this would be my solution.

What do you think, oh mighty mac experts?

By the way, I really do appreciate all the input and info you guys gave me thus far!

Cheers!

 

Wow, nobody?
