Can't run GMATPrep in PD as the java error "Could not get display mode" occurs when one tries to take a test. Any solution? /Göran -20 16.36.08.069:INFO :ATHENA Test Driver 2.3.601.409 2006-06-20 16.36.08.119:INFO :Exam compiled in version 2.3.601.100 2006-06-20 16.36.08.369:ERROR:java.lang.InternalError: Could not get display mode Method ------ getCurrentDisplayMode Stack trace-- sun.awt.Win32GraphicsDevice.getCurrentDisplayMode(Native Method) sun.awt.Win32GraphicsDevice.getDisplayMode(Unknown Source) vue.exam.core.util.SystemInformation.j(SystemInformation.java:246) vue.exam.core.util.SystemInformation.a(SystemInformation.java:65) vue.exam.driver.f.y(f.java:966) vue.exam.driver.f.a(f.java:655) vue.exam.client.gmac.gmatprep.b.f(b.java:178) vue.exam.client.gmac.gmatprep.j.run(j.java:39) java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) 2006-06-20 16.36.08.690:INFO isplay Message: An application error has occurred.

You can solve this problem by installing the latest JRE from sun, and then replacing all of contents of the GMATPrep jre directory with the updated version. A.
I replaced the contents of the JRe directory and that error is now gone. But the app still sits forever with a message that it's loading the practice content. Has anyone gotten this to actually work in Parallels?
Thanks for the Help Replacing the files worked for me. Thanks for this solution... it helped me get it working.
