It started failing today, yet, I haven't touched any network mode setting recently, neither in the VM, neither the mode, neither anything network related on Mac OS X itself. I'm a bit puzzled. I will revert to build 1970 if I don't find a workaround very quickly. __________________ Best Regards, Olivier (running // Desktop on MacBookPro1,1 since April '06)

Don't you have backups when testing beta software? I do have. ;-)
But anyway, I properly fully uninstalled Tools from the VM using Safe mode, then shtudown VM, uninstalled Parallels 3036, installed Parallels 1970, boot my VM, install the 1970 Tools and all is well.

I've noticed that if I "Start with Last Known Good Configuration" some updates are rolled back and it works fine. I can reproduce this error by doing the following: 1. Create new VM in Build 3306. 2. Install Windows XP using custom method, not the automated (express) method. 3. Install Service Pack 2. 4. Install all updates. 5. BSOD. I should note that after rebooting from step 4 is when I get the BSOD.

I'm unable to uninstall the tools, keeps telling me I need to restart the VM. Tried various safe modes, no luck. Uninstalled beta and tried reinstalling 1970, no luck with installing "new" old tools.

2)
Shutdown your XP, close Parallels application.
Open the 3036 dmg and run the installer you find there.
Shtudown / restart the Mac OS X.
3)
Install Parallels 1970.
Start you VM, and install the tools (those will be the 1970 tools).

This recovered it for me, despite what my signature reads below this post, I'm now on 1970, I'll come back to 3??? when I'll see there is hints this problem might be fixed.

To get ride of the Tools : The uninstaller didn't manage to do it in 'safe mode' so i've search for all stuff named 'parallels' and throw it in the "corbeille". Then execute 'regedit' and search for all 'parallels' stuff and delete it again and again (many keys). Reboot in normal mode and it's done. What is a BSOD ? n'tcha

Salut

I've got the same problems on a ImacCoreDuo20" trying to boot Parallels's BootCamp partition :

-The partition has been recognize but the process stoped in the WindowXP black screen just before the "welcome" and a blue screen appears with a long text saying there's a problem and just hang-on………………

So I reboot in 'safe mode'.

To get ride of the Tools :

The uninstaller didn't manage to do it in 'safe mode' so i've search for all stuff named 'parallels' and throw it in the "corbeille".
Then execute 'regedit' and search for all 'parallels' stuff and delete it again and again (many keys).

Reboot in normal mode and it's done.

What is a BSOD ?

n'tcha
