    Hi,
    i just recently installed parallel tools in my xp virtual machine, i got an error for each step ("this installation have not passed the win xp logo test...")
    i have actually seen videos of people running parallels smoother and faster then me, i was wondering if i should install windows again. Besides that, after i got the parallels tools i have no sound. My photoshop installation was an hour long... is that normal? then opening is like 5 minutes...

    Im running an imac intel 17 inch, 1.5gb ram, the vm has 768 ram assigned.

    please help!

    Betovarg.

    Hi betovarg,

    1. Parallels Tools drivers is indeed not signed yet - so you have to agree with messages to install it.
    2. Try to allocate less memory for VM - 512M or even 256M.
