Hello: My VM crashes every time I try to install a some software on my Windows 2000 OS. I am running Parallels build 3186 on top of a MacBook Pro with 3GB RAM. I gave Windows 1GB RAM to itself. It has plenty of everything -- RAM, disk space, plenty of love... Parallel Tools are installed, Coherent mode can be off or on, but the VM crashes whenever I try to install some software on top of the Windows. Windows itself runs as good as Windows is capable of But software that can and did run on top of windows natively now causes the VM to crash. I don't understand this, and the tech support people are not looking at the reports I'm sending in, but just telling me to re-install this, enable that, download this, etc. Is anyone running a similar configuration? Is anyone having similar problems? Any advice? Thanks, Mayer
