Every time I start my VM it tells me that windows vista was not shut down properly. Is there a preferred way to shut down windows vista?
I also have the same problem and am looking for an answer. I have Parallels set up so when it starts, it automatically goes into COHERENCE mode. If I shut down Parallels before turning off my Mac Pro, upon the next reboot, I get a message that Windows was not shut down properly. I then have to wait for a reboot of Windows as it stops at the black screen that asks me whether I want to start Windows under normal conditions are not. For now, I just log off Vista before shutting down Parallels.
