I am one of the myriad of users who is having nothing but trouble with BootCamp and Parallels. I have since switched to VMWare for the BC partition and all is well there at least. The issue with Parallels seems to be the switch of "hardware" configurations. I am wondering why VMWare can use the same H/W config as BootCamp and just have their tools override the BC tools. This seems much cleaner and keeps everything much healthier. Why can't Parallels take this same approach?
