With Leopard I experience severe crashes of Parallels 3 (5580) when using it on a second screen in full screen mode. Does anybody have the same problem? Regards, Hartmut
Similar? Parallels starts, Windows crashes, depends on window mode Yes, actually, I get a problem that sounds similar. I have a two-monitor setup, and I typically use Coherence. If I boot Windows while in Coherence, it blue screens. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to read the blue screen's text b/c it disappears too quickly. i haven't had luck catching it in a snapshot. I've also seen this problem while using Coherence on only one monitor, and while using Full Screen mode on a single monitor. I've even seen this happen a couple times when starting in Single-Window mode, which usually works. It happens with either my normal user or my admin account. Here's the weird part: Parallels doesn't crash. Windows actually boots and gets me as far as the machine's login pane. On this work system, I see two login windows: for our Novell network and then for my computer. Shortly (but not immediately) after filling in the second login, then Windows blue-screens. This all began shortly after our network switched to using Active Directory, but I think I also upgraded Parallels (to the version before the current 3.0 build) around then. 1. OS X 10.4.10 2. Parallels Build #5582 3. Mac Pro 2 x 2.66 GHz 4. 3GB RAM 5. 1 HD (120 GB) 6. no bootcamp 7. never used Beta 8. With what Build did the problem start? build before 5582. Sorry, I didn't record it 9. Yes, Parallels Tools are installed 10. Things I've tried to get things working: Turning off all Shared App options in VM Config Editor. Increasing graphics memory from 16 to 32 MB Using Coherence with only 1 monitor instead of both 11. Anything specific about your set-up you think we should know Two side-by-side screens with a slight vertical offset. I'd really prefer not to undo that; it's tough to get it close to right. As for crash logs... where do I find Windows crash logs? I can see plenty of log files in C:\Windows but can't tell (even from their mod times) which one might be the right one.
Still the same problem mit 5582 and full screen mode on second screen It does crash reproducable - when switching to Single Window it works as it should
I am working parallels 18, ubuntu 22.04 on a M1 Mac Mini. Intermittently, when switching back to a full screen (dual monitor mode) I will get tossed back to the login prompt with the active work gone when logging back into ubuntu. I sent a technical report.
