Hi! I have been using Paralells for running WinXP on my MacBook Pro for the last couple of months. Today my VM crashed and after rebooting i get the following error while trying to boot: --------- Parallels(R) VGA-Compatible BIOS Version 3.0.2111.89721 4.0.3522.205912 Sat, 08 Nov 2008 11:44:50 Copyright 2008 Parallels, Inc. All Rights reserved. 512 MB physical memory installer SCSI controller is not installed. Network bootrom is installed. Trying to boot from Primary Master IDE drive ... A disk read error ocurred Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart ------------ No matter what i do, it always comes to this error and does not manage to load Windows. I've been trying to fix this for the last 5 hours with no success. Can you guys help me!? Regards, Eduardo
I have this exact situation and there is no remedy I can find save erasing all and starting again. If I do that I am going to Fusion, which seems to have far fewer problems. I am a Parallels owner/user since BEFORE the first release. I love the program, but there are just too many breakdowns now.
