    parallels 10 running xp on rMBP. The font in the two panes for Volvo VADIS are small . When I tried changing screen resolution per instructions, i.e. scaling, the right pane disappears with parts listing and the left pane with parts drawing is too big. i tired different resolutions in xp display control panel and cannot make it look like my xp machine.

    Hi Steve,
    Please try disabling DirectX and check how it works.
    Open virtual machine configure >> Hardware >> 3D Acceleration >> Disable DirectX

    3d acceleration option does not appear. is it because I am using trial version?

    @stevey1 Is the virtual machine turned off while you were trying to disable DirectX?
    The virtual machine should be shut down while making any changes.

    I tried it both ways. Just now by clicking on the cog symbol. I do not see 3D acceleration
