Vista booting oddness... I've installed Vista Enterprise followed by the Parallels tools (first beta 2.5 v 3036 and now 3120) 2007 versions of Office, Project, and Visio, followed by Adobe Reader 8. Now, when I launch my Vista VM, it starts to boot but hangs while still on the initial 640x480 green progress bar loading screen (i.e. after about 10-15 seconds.) It will just sit there, the green progress bar frozen, for a very long time. I had been stopping the VM and restarting with the accompanying "error on last startup, do you want to safe boot?" questions coming up. Haven't been able to fix my issue on what is pretty much a plain install (but then I'm not really sure where to start with this new Windows monster...) Recently I tried quitting Parallels instead of stopping the VM. When I relaunched Parallels the VM resumed its suspended state and proceeded to boot normally... as far as I can tell! Is this the electronic equivalent of giving a balky PC a good kick to get it running again? Any thoughts on how to fix this? I need to put this VM on a machine that has the standard 1970 version of Parallels instead of the beta... g= |
