    My MacBook Pro has a dual boot scenario provided by bootcamp. I just completed an install of parallels, and it seems to work ok, except that for now when I boot directly into windows, it somehow is rendering graphics like a mac would, ie, the max/min/restore buttons are all on the left side of the screen in red/yellow/green combo, all of the buttons and icons are "mac" ish. What went wrong, and how do I get back the windows look? I need to have this to check designs, etc.

    Launch windows from within Parallels. Disable the "mac look" option within Parallels.

    You're back to the default Windows look for PD and Boot Camp.

    Maclook works by changing the Windows Theme. Since it is a theme it sticks for boot camp as well.
