    I just upgraded to 5160 running WinXP. Whenever I wake the OS from sleep (and have to enter a pswd to get out of the sleep screen ), the Mac rainbow cursor then spins for almost 2 minutes before I can begin to use the Guest OS. This did not happen in the previous version of 3.0 I have...

    I notice that when I turn off PC tools and then turn it back on that it also takes
    almost 2 minutes before the spinning raibow icon goes away. The mac activity monitor shows Parallels as "Not Responding" during this time.

    I have 3GB of RAM, 1144MB allocated to WinXP.

    Any help?

    Thanks!

    ..I noticed that periodically (but not very often) the Guest OS will become busy & the mac icon will spin while I am using Parallels. Things work without a problem with PC Tools turned off.

    Seems like the best thing to do is to revert back to 4560 until you all get this issue resolved.
