    So I'm running parallels on my Macbook Pro.
    I installed a genuine XP pro, upgraded it to DirectX 9.0c, then I installed Steam, downloaded CS:S and now when I try to launch it I see the box that pops up and says:

    "Preparing to launch Counter-Strike: Source..."

    But then after that, nothing happens. The box disappears, I see a small hourglass next to my cursor, and the game does not load.

    Can anyone help? I tried posting this on steampowered.com but so far no help from there. Was hoping some parallels users have gotten this working so that they can help. :eek:

    Parallels does not support 3d graphics. Wait until the next version. Release date is not announced yet.

    In the mean time, use boot camp.

    Someone should make this a sticky. This comes up once every few days, as soon at this thread hits the second page there will be another one...
