    I had Parallels running and then uninstalled it and removed all the files. Trying to now reinstall so I can try running vista on it.

    When trying to reinstall from the CD I'm getting the following errors:

    First it shows me somthing strange with the harddrive:

    When I select the hard drive to continue I then get the following message:

    I continue on and then get this:

    I can't find the previous version installed anywhere. Tried a spotlight search and it doesn't find anything. Trying to install build 1970. I'm on a Macbook Pro 2.33MHZ + 3GB Ram

    Any help would be great.

    I am having the exact same problem, I have searched for file that are part of Parallels Desktop for Mac and removed all. I have emailed support but they are slow to respond.

    Please help,
    Jim :(

    Try this:
    Go into /Library/Receipts and delete the Parallels Desktop installer( i'm unsure of the exact name right now). Then empty the trash and try again. It worked for me.
