Hey guys, I've searched both here and Google with no luck regarding an issue I'm having with Parallels. The host machine is a MacBook with 1GB of RAM and a 2GHz proc. The guest is Windows XP with 256 VRAM. I'm running my displays on seperate monitors and Parallels is in full screen mode. The issue I'm having is when the mouse focus is in the XP monitor the display starts acting flaky. Refreshes don't seem to happen as they're supposed to and the OS does not hilight where the mouse is. For example if I click START --> ALL PROGRAMS, the ALL PROGRAMS does not hilight nor does it display it's contents. The same happens with the menus at the top and often the contents of windows don't refresh properly either. Now, once OUT of Full Screen everything works in XP as it should. I have tested and can verify that full screen on the primary monitor works with out a hitch, the secondary monitor seems to have the problem. Has anyone seen this? Thanks! Phil
Menu mouse hover dissapears in full screen I am noticing the same problem you describe in full-screen mode (1920x1200) The mouse no longer creates a hover state on menu items at the top of the screen. It seems the top 150 pixels or so exhibits this anomoly. Maybe it has something to do with the Macbook Pro's main screen resolution (1680x1050) vs the attached 23" Cinema (1920x1200). In "windowed" mode it works fine - even stretched to the full screen size. Anybody else seen this? On a separate note - does anyone know how to keep the macbook from auto sensing monitor changes? We have several systems on KVM's and every time the focus is taken away from the macbook it re-arranges all items to the default monitor. Every other system we use (PC's) can hold screen resolutions and on return to these systems everything is where it should be... Pete
