    I am running boot camp 1.2 with Parallels VM (3188). Everything works well in boot camp and VM mode, except for a few strange things. The VM will occasionally just suddenly disappear for no good reason, and only a notification that it stopped suddenly (which was pretty darned apparent without the notification!). Anyway, when I looked in the Windows Event Viewer for some answers, the only things in the System log are tons of error messages, every few seconds, alternating between the following:

    ERROR #1
    Event Type: Error
    Event Source: FW1
    Event Category: None
    Event ID: 1

    The TransferData mismatch has different numbers in every entry. I've searched the Internet, but can't find anything that this might apply to. Has anyone else seen this?

    If your VM dissapear, then how do you look to the Windows events log ?
    Dies it go to the background or minimize its main window?

    FW-1.. thats Checkpoints firewall-1 vpn client right ? Try uninstalling it, reboot, then reinstalling it.

    The 1 google page i could find that was remotely related, doesnt seem to indicate this is a critical problem, so this might not be why you have a crash.

    Thanks for the responses. Yes, I do use the checkpoint client, so I will try the uninstall. Thanks for the suggestion. The errors have been around since I built boot camp, but I haven't noticed if they are appearing when in a boot camp session, a VM session, or both. The sudden crashes are infrequent and recent, so they may very well have nothing to do with the error.
