    Yes i am having the same problem (I think) with the halo demo. (i have aom too its a great game :-D and would like to play it on parallels). Whenever i open up halo it says
    "Your computer's video driver is known to have serious issues with the game. A newer version that is compatible may be available. If you wish to update your drivers, please contact your computer manufacturer for any necessary assistance." Which means that the parallels driver with the 3.0 update isnt compatible with halo. Some please help ive been trying to play halo for at least 1 month!! due to other problems i had with it too (3d acceleration wasnt turned on, AND parallels default video memory is set to only 16 MB when the game requires 32 so i had to figure out how to fix that 2)

    thanks

    I don't personally have Halo installed.. but it wouldn't surprise me if it where the same issue between the two games.

    Ya, Parallels really should test out some games on their program because I had a lot of problems so far and I had to figure them out myself (hint hint). So i would be really grateful for some kind of FAQ related to gaming on parallels or a list of errors and how to fix them.
