Drive size
HI--this forum is great. i got my Parallels running a few days ago on my iMac Dual Prrocessor--thanks to this forum.

quick one--I have XP Pro on the VM. I originally set it up to be 8 MB but then then it said i was running low, so I went to Image Tool made it Expanding, did the "increase the size of the virtual hard drive" and changed it to 15000 MB.

I closed everything out and the config manager now says 15000 MB as I wanted but when I click on the C: drive in the XP VM and hit properties it still says 8 GB with 7.88 used. Why doesnt it say 15 GB?

Also when I used Image tool and browse for disks to open it has winxp.1.hdd and winxp.hdd but in Parallels there is a winxp.1.pvs and a winxp.1.hdd but not a winxp.pvs (without the "1") only a a winxp.hdd that I cant select in Parallels----is that some kind of master version?
