    I am running Parallels 5.0 on a Mac OSX 10.6.4 and just starting getting this error on startup of my VM

    "Unable to access hard disk 1 error ID: Result too large"

    I only use one HDD in my VM which is labeled as HDD2. Can anyone give me an idea of what might be going on here?

    When I click ok to the error message, my VM starts up and runs normally, with no problems at all, as far as I can tell. I have opened the existing HDD2 with no problem and accessed files, also run programs with no problems.

    Regards,

    Could you please:

    1) start PD5
    2) run your guest, wait until message appears
    3) generate a problem report: (topmenu -> Help -> Report a Problem)

    write the ID number here in this thread.

    I'll check the log file and probably will explain you what's happening.

    I have now upgraded to PD6, so PD5 has been uninstalled by PD6 and no errors thus far in running PD6.
