    I get windows xp 'blue screen' crashes and the system reboots when using the USB ports. At times, this will happen when I have a printer plugged in, when my Moto Q is plugged in, etc. It doesn't crash immediately as I typically can use the device for a while then all of a sudden an intermittent blue screen will occur and windows xp reboots. I DO NOT have this issue with VMWare Fusion Beta 3. Does anyone have any ideas or recommendations? I feel that it has something to do with the USB driver itself but I am not certain.

    Hmm...
    Have you tried re-installing Parallels tools? Or even Parallels itself?

    Are you using build 3188?

    Do you have autoconnect on for USB devices?
