    Hi,

    I've installed Parallels 5, and I have a Win7, 64bit install in a guest VM. This is not a boot camp image, just a boring old VM.

    I would like to enable my iMac to go into power save mode when i leave it idle for a while. However, it appears that if I have my VM running, then it'll not go into power save mode.

    Do I have to enable powersave mode in the VM? I tried that previously, and it didn't appear to work.

    Suggestions, guides, would be great.

    Yours,
    Dominic
