    Hi,

    I am getting a BSOD everytime I resume a suspended session. I haven't been having any other issues but this one is getting rather irritating.

    My environment
    MBP - 2G RAM
    OS X 10.4.9

    Parallels 3188
    Windows XP SP2 - Fully patched.
    612MB
    16 MB VRAM

    Has anyone encountered this before ?

    Do you have installed Parallels Tools?

    This doesn't happen to me every time, but enough that I stopped suspending the VM most of the time and just put the Mac to sleep, which has resulted in no VM crashes.

    It also seemed to be related to suspending the VM when it was on one monitor, and then resuming on another monitor. It seems to me the Parallels video driver is the weak link in the chain. It's slow to redraw sometimes after a resume when you resize the OS window, and in this scenario just outright crashes.

    Same Problem here.
    MBPro 2.16
    OS X-up to date
    2GB RAM
    Parallels 3188
    Win XP Home-all up to date
    I can NEVER suspend the VM without some sort of crash. Either BSOD or lock-up no matter what I do. Also have same problem if I let MBPro go to sleep with Parallels running and XP open.

    Have gotten to the point where I just shut down XP each and every time I have to leave to computer. Kind of a pain. Anyone else with this? Any solution?
    Tks.
