Like I implied it's related to how much you have overall, if you have 4 GB RAM, and increase the VM to 2 GB it will likely make the whole computer...

Most likely because video requires hardware acceleration, which is not present in OSX Guests (Parallels does not have access to the necessary API to...

You can try it yourself, can't you? If your physical machine would have an infinite amount of RAM and an infinite amount of CPUs increasing the...

Well then sorry to beat the dead horse. Thanks for the insightful post, i had not known that prior.

The answer is always the same, in order to have HW accel in a VM, the virtualization app (Parallels, Fusion...) has to hook in to the OS graphics API...

Probably the window is opening on a different 'space'? Switch from Coherence to Window mode? Mavericks has a slightly different 'spaces' and multi...

An idea/question just popped in my head. what about SL hackintosh in a VM like VMware, not sure if it would work in parallels and if that would give...

As a precautionary measure always backup the vm, by copying the .pvm to a safe location if it's not bootcamp based.

Just use the new license code on the win7 installation, go thru the genuine process and input the new key, I believe.

Use shared folders.

A: is a floppy disk (image), eject it from the VM configuration preferences.

You doubleclick on it.

The just copy the files on the DVD to a USB pen or something similar.

Easier way... Download it from Kaspersky site.

Anyone experiencing this problem should report this to Apple, that's what the Dev preview is for anyway.

Follow the instructions carefully, you have to know your way around the terminal, you have to change dir to teh one specified and only then issue the...

Be sure to also report this problem to Apple.

Yes, just moving to the trash, but in another similar thread a user found the problem, PDM8's kernel extensions have to be manually launched. ...

Is this after a clean install of PDM8 in 10.9 or 10.8 was upgraded to 10.9 with PD8 in place? I suggest uninstalling and reinstalling PDM8, have you...

Like a pc or like a mac are a set of configuration options you can alter one by one in the VM configuration settings.

that explains why the hack is probably only used with windows then, at least from what i remember. oh well, i was just bouncing some ideas off the...

There's absolutely no way to get hardware acceleration on a virtual machine that is running OS X whatever is the host OS. The only way, right now, is...

well on one hand you would run linux in parallels on MtLion host and VM tiger inside of that linux oorrrr you could dual boot linux (which i do...

I was referring to Linux Guests because apparently I misunderstood your question due to the context of the thread. For Linux Hosts there's...

No VMware does. i didn't think Parallels ran on linux. if it does does that cost extra or does it run on both mac and linux?

Linux guests, like Ubuntu, don't need any 'hack', Parallels Tools provides OpenGL acceleration.

Linux hosts i believe have hack to allow gpu acceleration to the guest the os. if parallels gives gpu acceleration to linux guests....

OH SNAP! Does V4 if it could be coaxed in to running Tiger work on MtLion? Then again Specimen makes a good point since Windows has hardware...
