    Installed the new Beta, worked fine. Quit and a few days started it again and now the display is goofy. Went back to 1970 and basically the same thing.

    Can't change the size of the Parallels window. XP launches but the mouse clicks above where it shows.

    Reinstalled the tools by using the keyboard to tab around and get to what I need.

    When starting the XP logo on the black background is centered but after that the Parallels window doesn't grow to show all of the XP window. I'm getting about 1/4 of the XP window showing within the Parallels window.

    I guess what I need is a way to synchronize the the mouse, the Parallels window and the XP that's running within it.

    Thanks!

    I have had same problem. Went back to 1790 did not solve . Then I deleted all data files except the .HDD & .PVS. This solved the problem.

    When you say "...deleted all data files except the .HDD & .PVS" do you mean all of the other files in the folder where the .HDD & .PVS files reside, or are there additional files beyond those that you also deleted?

    You are correct! I deleted things like .sav, .mem and folders in there.

    Perfect -- I just wanted to make certain that your suggestion was clear enough for others to follow as well if they need to do so.
