I hope someone can help. I tried installing an older beta build a while back (I think it was the build RIGHT before the final release) pointing it to my boot camp partition, and it popped up that warning about "dont' touch until parallels tools has installed". It booted properly but never got to the desktop (I don't nkow if it got hung up on the username/password requirement (It's XP pro)). I had to shut down the VM. Since then I have been unable to get it to boot. I can boot into windows fine. The only time I see the boot menu showing the "parallels" partition is on boot in parallels. Directly booting intot he boot camp goes right into windows. Booting through parallels briefly shows the boot menu, then it goes to the "windows did not boot properly... " menu with the options to "Start windows normally" or the safe mode options, then once it gets past that it bluescreens, then reboots .. That behavior continues in a loop. The weird thing is , I was going to try to remove the parallels partition, so I booted into windows and looked at boot.ini, and there's only ONE entry in it. Is there some other partition I can't see with a boot.ini I should be looking at? Is there any way to completely reverse whatever the older version did to the disk so I can reinstall from scratch again? Thanks for any help anyone can give. --Mike
