Parallels Tools Kills Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15042

Have your tried setting 3D Acceleration to DirectX 9? (Under Hardware/Graphics/Advance Settings in the virtual machine configuration utility)

 

I tried this but it made no difference. The blue screen stop error is "System thread exception not handled".

 

Can confirm also with Windows 10 Insider Preview 15063 (rs2_release)

 

Confirmed.

 

Hi @PaulChris@Parallels ,
Thanks for you response, is it the official way to fix this issue or just work around?
@AlL: any of you tried this please let me know the result, many thanks.

 

Just another information for you, if I start with safe-mode, then remove parallels display adapter, then I can start windows as normal but cannot set to retina resolution.

 

Tried the system repair- no luck.

 

By the way, as another point, which I am figuring someone has covered already, the update process 'works' all the way until after Parallels re-installs itself, after the final batch of reboots and 'Hey- hang on, we've got to update some other stuff' screen. After that goes away, Parallels Tools auto-installs and blasts everything.

 

This is not the answer. The Parallels video driver crashes Windows 10 with a system thread exception not handled error. It is 100% a Parallels 12 issue and this problem is only going to grow once these Insider Preview versions of Windows 10 go main stream. Now is the time to fix this not when it affects every user!

 

As with the others, if I disable the Parallels display driver whilst in safe mode I can boot into a low-resolution wonderland.

 

Just updated to Build 15063 (1703 RTM). Same BSOD problem and same solution by disable Parallels Video Driver. Can 99% sure it's the driver problem and hope dev team solve the problem asap. (kowtow)
After disabled official driver the VM fallback to default display drivers and works well. The maximum resolution is 1920x1080 via an Retina display 12-inch new MacBook, and can zoom to 150% dpi. No significant delay. All the other drivers included in Parallels Tools are OK.

 

Still waiting (((((((((((

 

@spar7y posted the best temporary solution for this problem in another thread. Once you run into the bluescreen issue boot into recovery mode run diagnostics and then choose option 3 (low resolution mode). After restarting you should be able to boot into Window 10. Run msconfig.exe select the boot tab then check the base video box. Once this is done you should be able to boot into you Parallels VM without bluescreen errors.

 

THANKS YOU
Confirmed this solution worked for my MBP Windows 10 15063

 

This is still not solved...

 

This is absolutely doing my head in - on three different machines this has started happening now. If you change the resolution modes then they just look crappy. Half way through building new machines in Fusion due to it.
Friday. RAGE.

 

@exemega try the solution below, it worked for me ^^
