    It keeps asking me for this Drivers CD every time I install Vista. How do I get around this? Is this something that I need to make in boot Camp and then bring over? Is this something that should be happening in Parallels? What do I do? I am completely lost here. Please help!!

    Thank you!!!

    Did you install Parallel Tools? I didn't need any drivers for my Vista.

    Yeah, turns out it was because I was using an upgrade disc with a Windows XP install, it was looking for a driver called "standard PC", and what I needed to do was just install using the version of XP that I got this upgrade for, which was XP media center edition instead of installing it on my current XP pro . That's what caused the issue. Once put XP Media Center on that install and then upgraded from that, all worked fine. Thanks!!!
