Okay, here's the story: About three weeks ago I installed the trial version of Parallels for my MacBook Pro 17 Inch Core 2 Duo. I ran Windows XP Tablet PC Edition..., it worked flawlessly. After the trial ran up, I finally purchased a copy of Parallels [DVD Version]. Though, I removed the original trial software and installed the DVD software. However, the DVD software, when setting up a virtual machine, would force me into a restart [the screen would turn black and leave me no other option]. So, I went on Parallels and installed the trial, again, and entered in my activation key. It worked. I can now set up a virtual machine..., though, here's where I get stuck. After dealing with this screen for approximately fifteen minutes, I decided to restart the virtual machine..., only to get this screen. Any comments and / or suggestions would be sincerely appreciated as I look forward to using this product once more.
good morning from England Happy New Year holiday many users and most offices will be off line today and I have not experienced your problem - so be patient please until a more knowledgable volunteer turns up Hugh W
if you move your mouse over the hard disk icon in the lower right corner of parallels, what does it say for Device Mode Name Status ?
Have you installed available updates? I've had the same problem with an older version of PD After I installed an update the problem was solved. Good luck!
