I've got Parallels set up to boot a Windows XP VM from Bootcamp. Under Edit -> Virtual Machine -> Booting I have both options "Start VM automatically when it is opened" and "Exit application on VM shutdown" unchecked. However Parallels always automatically starts the VM when I launch it, and always shuts down when I stop the VM. The only way I can edit the VM settings is to launch Parallels and then cancel the VM launch when it prompts me for the Bootcamp password. This is pretty annoying when I want to make any configuration changes. Does anybody know why these settings seem to be being ignored and what, if anything, can be done about it? Thanks, -Bruce
Am unable to edit my VM, because I have VM configured to automatically boot (to Win XP). When I stop the VM (running XP), Parallels quits. How do I open Parallels without autobooting if I have already configured it to auto boot? (any way to interrup the autoboot without closing Parallels?)
