    Hello,

    I purchased a 2015 Macbook pro 13 with retina and when I have the 3d acceleration enabled (Directx 10) and start my parallels I get my screen turn into pink and flikers. Attached is the screen shot. The pink screen goes off if I move the mouse but come back again in few seconds! If I turn 3d acceleration off then I dont have that issue.

    I had earlier used Parallels on my Mac Air before getting the macbook pro and 3d was acceleration enabled int it and didnt have any such issue.

    Any idea why this is happening on my new macbook pro? Also the parallels is using windows that was installed via boot camp.

    BTW I have Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac.

    Thanks
    Anand

    I can confirm this with my brand new Macbook Pro 13" 2015 laptop. Same issue, corrupted pink screen sporadically occurs when in fullscreen mode. Any fixes?

    What seem to have fixed for now at least is to reset the NVRAM by following instructions here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063
    Not sure if it is a temporary fix though...time will tell
    Hope this helps!
