…seems to be much better. Maybe I wasn't using it properly in the last version, but the way i can load windows full screen (with aero) in space 2 and just switch between spaces, seems to give me the best performance/integration trade-off. I am satisfied enough with this configuration, that...

after experiencing the same problem, I suspect that it has nothing to do with MacLook at all. It seems that when using an Aero theme, the alpha on the corners is not rendered correctly. Parallels seems to create its own Aero theme, with a grey background. I think it is this background you are...

Tried this 3 times now, same result each time: 1. Switch to crystal mode (from any other mode) 2. Watch spinning beach ball 3. Wait for parallels to crash itself. MBP / 10.6 fresh install / Boot camp / windows 7 fresh install

When I load Magic online via parallels, some of the graphics are missing. I checked on two different machines, one running vista, one running xp. The problem does not occur in boot camp. It happens regardless of which graphics options I use in Parallels, and regardless of whether I run in...

For ages I have been trying to get Parallels to work on my MBP. It was ok with version 3, but I’ve not been able to load it without seriously impacting the performance of the OS for a long time. I thought that maybe this was due to upgrading to vista, so last week I deleted the VM and...

Ok looks like I might be able to answer my own problem: It seems that if I go into disk utility and then unmount the boot camp disk before starting parallels, this error doesn’t seem to happen. This is based on limited testing at the moment though.

Recently parallels has been running really badly on my MacBook Pro. I tried changing different options but nothing worked.I would start parallels, load a guest OS and the whole system would grind to a halt-- even if windows wasn't actually loading (if it had stopped on the boot screen). I was...
