Falling at the first hurdle.

Hi,

Trying to migrate my old Window XP PC to a new iMac using Parallels.

Installed the transporter on the PC, and Parallels on the Mac. We the Mac detects the PC I get a 'The computer "PC" requires authentication': Name; Password.

I've tried using the 'Windows user' login name, and password, and Im told 'You entered and invalid name or password'.

Now this is perfectly valid on the Windows PC - its what I log in with!!! Equally, I have gone to user accounts and tried changing the name and password there, and none of the combination I have tried have altered what happens.

The odd thing is that I have got past this stage for migrating one of the other login-ins, without any difficulty.

My question is then, where do I 'get' the 'Name' and 'Password' that Parallels wants, from the PC? Under Control panel/system, the 'computer name' is simply 'PC', which I have tried as well.

Help, !!!

Many thanks,

Damian
