Mine lasts between 5 min and an hour before quitting to desktop. I fixed the mouse issue by turning off the modifier settings and using Microsoft intellimouse software on the Mac side. So it is playable until it crashes. Higher settings result in more frequent crashes. Seems like this should be...

CounterStrike: Source failing Whenever it tries to start I get a: Engine Error: failed to lock vertex buffer in CMeshDX8::LockVertexBuffer Oh well, bootcamp remains the only solution to get my fix.

Mac Pro 3.0 Ghz 8GB RAM Bootcamp on secondary internal disk

BootCamp option not working on second SATA drive I have a Mac Pro with 2 SATA drives. I have used BootCamp to install Windows XP SP2 on my second SATA drive. I have no problems booting it up. When I create a Bootcamp configuration within Parallels everything seems fine until it tries to...

It beachballs for me even if I manually set the amount of system memory. What did you set it to and how much memory are you allocating for your VM?

I have a 4G, 3ghz, Mac Pro running Parallels 1940 with Windows XP SP2 installed. If I leave the VM alone for a long time I think some sort of energy saver in the OS kicks in or something like that and it freezes. When I try and shutdown the VM parallels then pin wheels and I have to force quit...

I've reported it to technical support now.

This is the same behavior I am seeing. Mac Pro 3.0 ghz, 4G ram, 1 500G disk, ATI 1900XT, 1 30" monitor, airport, BT.

I uninstalled and reinstalled 1910. I created a new set of VM settings and pointed it at an old install of WinXP and it crashed the computer most of the way through the boot up sequence. No reported KP just a freeze. Are most of the people on here installing from scratch?

Mac Pro still just hangs on startup I installed 1910 over 1908. Started Parallels. Started a Windows XP VM that I had from my MacBook Pro install. I get an immediate beachball and the everything stops being reponsive.

Mac Pro just hangs Right after the BIOS post screen the system hangs and nothing else happens until I use the power button to reboot it. This was a fresh install of 1908. I have the new firmware installed from Apple. There is very little else on the system. The image is from a MacBook Pro...

3D games unlikely to work Any sort of modern 3D game will currently be too demanding to play within the Parallels environment sense it doesn't have direct access to your video card.

I am seeing around 25-30% CPU usage when running CentOS 4.3 under beta6. The linux side reports a load average of 0.00. Is this what I should expect? Using Shark I find that it is spending its time in devloctl. Can I expect at some point to reach some reasonable amount of usage around 5%?

My networking for both wired and wireless is working in Windows. In my redhat install only wired networking works.

Parallels beta5, MacBook Pro Just got a kernel panic after shutting down a Redhat VM: Fri Apr 28 21:54:06 2006 panic(cpu 1 caller 0x0019CAEF): Unresolved kernel trap (CPU 1, Type 14=page fault), registers: CR0: 0x8001003b, CR2: 0x0000002a, CR3: 0x00d70000, CR4: 0x000006a0 EAX: 0x00000022, EBX...

I have RHE 4.3 installed and it fails to aquire the network through DHCP on either network adapter. This used to work just fine in beta4 and now fails in beta5.

Reboots. Charged it all the way back up and then took it down to 45% or so and it did the same thing with no Parallels running. Got a new battery from Apple. Dunno if it solved the problem yet.

I have an empty My Network Places screen though I am sharing two folders. Don't know what to do to get them to show up.

I've seen this as well, but it bled over to times where I wasn't using Parallels. Perhaps there is some problem?

You can change the resolution in the guest currently but Windows is not showing support for the native resolution of a MacBook Pro so it looks pretty bad when it stretches it.
