Upgrade to 4.0, Display adapter problems (10.4.11 host, XP SP2 guest)

Hi,

I've just upgraded to 4.0 (build 3848) running on OS X 10.4.11 host OS, Windows XP SP2 guest OS.
Every time I start up Windows I get the "Found new hardware" wizard popping up with "Parallels Display Adapter". I click cancel as suggested in the Parallels documentation, but the Parallels Tools installer does not autostart. When I open the CD drive D:, the setup.exe app is not there (it is just blank). When I was setting up the VM I set the D: drive to connect to my DVD drive in the VM configuration and do not know where to find the iso image for the parallels tools setup.exe.

I have reinstalled Parallels Tools from the Parallels Desktop -> Virtual Machine menu and it has not resolved the issue, nor has it connected to the iso disk image in Windows as stated in the documentation.

Currently I cannot use Coherence or Full Screen mode, or dynamically resize the window - it just stays fixed at whatever display size is defined by the Windows display control panel. This is really very annoying as it worked perfectly in 3.0.

Thanks

 

Well it looks like I may have answered my own question, so here it is incase anyone else has had the same problem:

1.) After trawling through the PDF User Guide, I discovered the Parallels Tools iso disk image is located in: /Library/Parallels/Tools/prl-tools-win.iso, on my Mac this is in the shared Library on the root of MacHD, not the one in my home folder. I reconnected this to map to the D:/ drive in the VM.

2.) In Windows, after the "Found New Hardware" wizard popped up, I told it to search for the driver on the D:/ drive, which installed successfully.

Dynamic resize in single Window mode, and Coherence mode both now work again
