    Since upgrading Parallels 3.0 from the previous build to build 5160, my medical learning CD does not work anymore because it breaks the copy protection scheme. Very annoying, since it does render Parallels useless for me.
    Will this be fixed again - or do other solutions work better in this context?
    BootCamp works, but is not as convenient as I cannot copy/paste to Mac OS X.

    TIA

    Here is the protection scheme (original disk)

    upgrading to Mac OS X 10.5.1 solves the issue

    After upgrading Mac OS X to version 10.5.1 the copy protected CD works again in Parallels. Thanks, Apple :)
