    My Windows XP (guest OS) install always seems to stall out 3/4s through the install process. "Setup will complete in approximately 19 minutes." The progress bar states "Installing Start menu items" and is 99% full. I've let it run a couple of times all night long with no progress. I'm trying to install from my own XP Professional disc. I tried to install XP, when I had Parallels Desktop 3, from an iso but that too had problems. However, it wasn't this exact same problem. It was differnet but it was so long ago I can't remember exactly what the problem was. I have been able to successfull install Windows 7 (experimental). I'm a little stumped as what to do next. Thougts?

    Any ideas why this might be happening? A few views but no rely.
