Hi all, Having just bought and set up Mac Pro with Desktop running XP Pro I have been very impressed apart from the intermittent crashes! This doesn’t seem to have any pattern and I have attached the log to see if any of you’s can help? Its taking some getting used to! ----------------- Date/Time: 2007-05-16 15:31:48.065 +0100 OS Version: 10.4.9 (Build 8P4037) Report Version: 4 Command: Parallels Path: /Applications/Parallels/Parallels Desktop.app/Contents/MacOS/Parallels Parent: WindowServer [56] Version: 2.5 (2.5 Build 3186.0) PID: 210 Thread: 9 Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x01a15000 Thread 0: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x9000a457 mach_msg_trap + 7 1 com.apple.CoreFoundation 0x9082c2b3 CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 2014 2 com.apple.CoreFoundation 0x9082bace CFRunLoopRunInMode + 61 3 com.parallels.desktop 0x00538275 0x1000 + 5468789 4 com.parallels.desktop 0x004cd84b 0x1000 + 5032011 5 com.parallels.desktop 0x004cd964 0x1000 + 5032292 6 com.parallels.desktop 0x002f170d 0x1000 + 3081997 7 com.parallels.desktop 0x00040e9b 0x1000 + 261787 8 com.parallels.desktop 0x00006792 0x1000 + 22418 9 com.parallels.desktop 0x000066b9 0x1000 + 22201 Thread 1: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x9000219c ioctl + 12 1 com.parallels.desktop 0x003b89ca 0x1000 + 3897802 2 com.parallels.desktop 0x00321836 0x1000 + 3278902 3 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90024987 _pthread_body + 84 Thread 2: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90038297 mach_wait_until + 7 1 libSystem.B.dylib 0x9003a962 usleep + 82 2 com.parallels.desktop 0x0057b9f6 0x1000 + 5745142 3 com.parallels.desktop 0x0057e8ea 0x1000 + 5757162 4 com.parallels.desktop 0x003a3056 0x1000 + 3809366 5 com.parallels.desktop 0x00321836 0x1000 + 3278902 6 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90024987 _pthread_body + 84 Thread 3: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90025027 semaphore_wait_signal_trap + 7 1 com.parallels.desktop 0x0057ec08 0x1000 + 5757960 2 com.parallels.desktop 0x00321836 0x1000 + 3278902 3 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90024987 _pthread_body + 84 Thread 4: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90025027 semaphore_wait_signal_trap + 7 1 com.parallels.desktop 0x0057ec08 0x1000 + 5757960 2 com.parallels.desktop 0x00321836 0x1000 + 3278902 3 libSystem.B.dylib 0x90024987 _pthread_body + 84 . . . . . . . .

I'll run that - but the mahcines brand new and when using the XP Pro in Parallels I only ever have Outlook and a few intener explorer windows open.
I'm seeing a similar crash, running on a Macbook Pro running OS X 10.4.9, Windows XP Pro as the guest OS. I'm getting Unexpectedly Quit out of Parallels with no other application open except Internet Explorer 6 for Windows. I've attached my crash log as of course it's 3x too long to paste.
Similar experience here Most of the time I can get it to crash when VS 2005 is up and IIS is running. Seems to not happen at all when IIS is not running (IOW default web site stopped). I too am attaching my crash report from today.
I have the same thing happening to me also. Is use Parallels almost every day, and have this crash about once a day. It looks like that it happens when I click with the mouse (left or right button). I've attached some crash reports.
never happens to me I do run a windows clean up program which found 7 registry errors last time in MS IE 7 "Check your PC health for free Welcome to the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner.

I constantly get crashing with this error, too. I gave up when it crashed three times in a day. I have had to stop using Parallels for everything as it wastes too much of my time. I use for tests that my Windows box is too weak to handle. I have run memtest, which has a nominal fee for downloading. It did 26 passes and all of the tests replied, "ok". I have looked at the heat sinks and they appear to be fine. I was thinking of going back to using the previous version of Parallels, which rarely crash, if at all. I cannot test software on a system that I consider flaky. Unfortunately, my VMs have been updated for 2.5. I'd have to start from scratch if I switched. If it matter, I do not have clean installs of Windows using Parallels 2.5. I brought my old VMs from the previous version into 2.5.
