    I have a Ghosted XP image that works fine -- in Bootcamp.

    But when I try to use the new (5160) Parallels build to boot this bootcamped disk up, I get the message:

    Windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem.

    Could not read from the selected boot disk. Check boot path and disk hardware.

    Please check the Windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information.


    So, I'm thinking it's either the boot.ini file I have *or* the hal.dll/ntoskrnl.exe file I'm using in my XP image.

    Can somebody who has parallels/bootcamp actually working (and I have a MacBook Pro), post:

    1) Their boot.ini file?

    2) The *size* of c:\windows\system32\hal.dll

    3) The *size* of c:\windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe

    Maybe my image is using the wrong files -- even though everything works fine in Bootcamp 1.4

    Thanks!
