    Hi,

    I have been using Build 1970 and Windows XP Pro fpr quite a while without any problems. I recently decided to upgrade to the latest version 3188 and have found that when i scroll in internet explorer, the writing seems lag behind and it is almost choppy when scrolling (when using the mouse scroll wheel).

    I have also noticed its doesnt handle videos as well as build 1970 used to, where you can see it stuttering and blocky in places where build 1970 would play flies fine.

    I have a macbook core duo 2ghz with 1.25gb of ram and nothing has changed apart from upgrading from 1970 to 3188.

    Just wondering if someone has experienced something similar. I would like to go back to build 1970 but deleted the installer file and i dont know where to find it!!

    Cheers,

    Jason

    Double click the Parallels icon in the tray and verify that all of the drivers are enabled. The video and mouse drivers were prevented from installing on my first attempt by the McAfee security software. I was unable to click on the allow button fast enough.

    All the drivers were installed. I even tried re-installing Parallels build 3188 and the parallels tools again but still no luck.

    Its sort of hard to explain but when scrolling instead of the whole page moves it cuts it in half and then only half moves while the other stays there until you stop scrolling with the mouse.

    Build 1970 never did this.

    Hopefully its not just an issue with me?!?
