mac - Why does the Macbook Pro Unibody crash on hibernate under Windows?




My late 2008, Macbook Pro Unibody machine has a number of ugly flaws that rear their head under Windows (Bootcamp):




  1. Crash 9 out of 10 times on Hibernate

  2. Audio stuttering (already have the latest drivers for everything from Microsoft)

  3. Trackpad use causing crashes



Sadly, this undesirable behavior happens under both Vista and Win7RC. Has anyone had any luck solving these issues? My guess is that they are mostly driver related, but I just can not resolve them.




Before you ask, yes I've binged and tried all the usual approaches, installing BootCamp 2.1, etc.



Also, it might be useful to know that I'm currently on Win7RC 64-bit


Answer



I get the win7 64bit hibernate bug everywhere except in VMs. I just turned off hibernate. I'm hoping it will be fixed before final release, but this seems to happen on all hardware.



These are all most certainly driver issues. You might look around for some beta drivers, or maybe try downgrading to older version drivers. Sadly there is only one way to find out ... try and see.
