Windows 7 Desktop Manager + Aero

Bit poster
I have an issue on several different macs running Parallels 5 and Windows 7 -

Windows 7 screen will go black while running aero, flicker back and re-draw any open windows. This takes about 1-2 sec and seems to happen on various machines every hour or so. Sometimes when it comes back aero has been turned off and widows reports it as a problem with desktop manager and it has to be manually re-enabled.

Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

Thanks

Martin
 
I have similar problems with PD 5 and Win7x64 too. I cannot turn on Aero at all and sometimes the windows manager shuts down in basic mode. I tried to resolve it with windows control panel - it detected that windows manager is turned off and it turned him on but nothing changed....
I've got a Black MacBook with Intel X3100 graphics and Mac OS X 10.6.2.
 
Lots of crashes

Just add to this - we have monitored one machine and just today during normal use Windows Desktop Manager has crashed 27 times! 7 of them within 30 mins.

Does anyone else get this or does Parallels have a workaround or any sort?

I saw in another thread that an update is coming to address this issue.
