Good day We have a Powerbook mac. I start (press play), it (windows xp) seems that it boots up but doesn't go beyond "memory check screen" I am not sure what to do. Can anyone help? Thank You Jean Neftin New York [email protected]
Could you provide some screenshot of what your display shows - so we can understand what's happening a little bit better ?
I just experienced the same. I had Parallels up and running WinXP. The XP installation had taken me quite some time to create (CVS setup, Editor and other software). The lag on the mouse movement annoyed me so I thought I'd install Parallel Tools since they suposedly offer better speed. Just seconds after the Parallel Tools installer had started, my MacBook Pro restarted. When it had restarted, I opened Parallels and tried running the VM. I got a message saying that the VM was being used by another instance of Parallels and that it could cause problems if I tried to run the VM anyway. I tried another reboot to no vain. I then tried running the VM despite the warning. Now, the VM refuses to start XP. It shows the intial DOS-screen and displays the loader bar (the one that is made up of ASCII characters). As soon as the loader bar is filling up, the VM just quits wth no warnings and no dialogues. Any suggestions appreciated!
