    Here's my issue in a nutshell.
    - I have no cursor in my VM...

    When I run parallels and start up my VM everything works fine. But when it finishes loading and i try to move around and navigate inside my VM, there is no mouse cursor. It worked just fine before, until I tried to install Parallels Tools. After that I have no cursor. I tried to reinstall the Parallels Tools but i get to the screen to install it and i cant click the "NEXT" button to install it. I tried navigating with my keyboard and that is no use either. I also checked to make sure that there was no checkmarks in the USB thing in the bottom right corner either...

    I'm hoping you now what I've done wrong, because I sure don't!

    O and I'm using XP Professional if that helps.

    Try to stop VM and delete .mem .sav files in VM folder.
    another way is to attach external keyboard and mouse from USB -Devices

    Where can i find these .mem .sav files? In my windows XP folder all I see is a .pvs .fdd .hdd files. And I don't see any files like this in my Parallels folder. I would really prefer not to have to connect an external mouse and keyboard everytime. Think I should just reinstall the whole VM?
