    Help !!!

    I have been very happy with Parallels since i installed it in Sept 06. No problems.

    yesterday, i upgraded to Build 3188.. after several start up issues i got my VM running (Windows XP Pro, SP 2).

    When i re-opened Parallels again, it kept asking me to create a new VM (it refused to recognize already installed VM's).

    As a result every time i log in an "OS installation assistance" dialog box opens up. Earlier, parallels would simply go to a list of my "Saved VM's" and ask me which one would i like to open.

    So i am left with only two choices -

    1. Either spend 1/2 hour every day creating a new VM, or
    2. Go to User/Library/Parallels/... dig out the relevant .PSV file and "click" open.

    Sort of round about way of opening Parallels, and makes the icon on my dock irrelevant..

    My question?

    - is there a way to resolve this issue?

    - can anyone throw some light on this..

    thanks
