I recently got a new HD, and wanted to move my Leopard install to the new drive and expand the old drive to be all used for my windows partition (previously working fine under bootcamp/parallels). I backed up the partition using winclone, then used bootcamp assistant to make the whole drive setup for windows. I restored the drive with winclone, then tried to boot from boot camp, and I got a No Boot Device Error. I tried booting it up in parallels and it seemed to boot (first it ran chkdsk because of the new drive size) but while loading the login screen it would freeze up. I decided to try a repair install, but when I would boot into bootcamp from the XP cd, it would not find the old install or offer the repair option (only offered the option of wiping the drive or deleting the old windows install). When I booted off the CD in parallels however, it did offer me the repair option. So I decided to try the repair in parallels, and it was going fine, it reboots and continues the install, and pops up a message saying the parallels video driver is not digitally signed. First I tried telling it to install anyway. It then proceeded to ask me for the location of several drivers (all having parallels in the name). Not being able to find any of the drivers, I had to cancel out of those dialogs. The progress continues and it gets to the normal keyboard selection/XP key entry screens. After that more parallels driver dialogs pop up, and I cancel out of them. The install then hangs at 27 minutes and will not continue (I tried leaving it overnight). I then forced a reset and when it starts up it tries continuing the install again, and the same dialogs come up. It doesn't seem to matter whether I say yes or no to the first one, I get the same dialogs after it. Is there anything I can do to get it to find the drivers and finish the repair?
Hello max000000, When a message saying any parallels driver is not digitally signed appears and than you are asked to indicate the location of the driver, you should point out the following path: /Library/Parallels/Tools/vmtools.iso In vmtools.iso open Drivers folder and choose the needed driver's folder. This is supposed to help. Best regards, Xenos
