    I had to reinstall OSx and selected for it to save my settings of which it didn't do. Now when I try to run Parallels it says its missing some drivers that it needs. Obviously they were not installed to a folder that is backed up so I need to find out whether its ok to reinstall Parallels or am I going to have to reinstall XP and all my windows apps as well?

    Thanks,

    Well, there is a good chance that your XP installation should still be there, but you will have to re-install the Parallels application as the driver files are in the system files, which are over-written with any OS X install.

    Thanks, I went ahead and reinstalled and it did detect my original system so I don't have to reload, thank goodness.
