    Hi,

    I just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion with the latest release of PD6 already installed. On trying to resume a previously-working Windows 7 VM I just get a message saying the parallels driver is incorrect and need to restart the host machine. However restart doesn't help. I can't resume and I don't seem to be able to reset the VM.

    Any ideas?

    Same issue. I'll have windows 7 x64 ultimate in full screen with an app running. I close the lid for 30 mins perhaps, open and it'll display a blank screen. No cursor movements and no reaction to key presses. I have to hold down the power button to reboot to gain access to the machine.

    Same issue

    I am closing the lid of my new Sandybridge MBA 13" with Lion and Win 7 x64 running, and after a few hours I try to resume (open lid), and dead. Power button must be held down to boot from scratch. This is LATEST parallels desktop b build 12094. Happend twice in 2 days.

    Yes but I may have screwed up doing it as its only classified as an enhancement request whereas its rather more severe than that.

    Item is: 1185834 in your support system.

    I also tagged on the problem with colours of wpf apps in same request but I guess that won't be popular being on the same ticket!

    If anyone else is suffering may I suggest you raise a ticket? They have this on their support queue but priority is dictated by number of users with the issue who complain.

    The work around I have been advised is to disable the osx screen saver. Not tested this yet.
