    I had some free space on my windows partition so Parallels popped up in a little window saying "Would you like to compress your hard disc? It appears you have free space." So I clicked ok, it shut down, and then when I try to boot it up I get this Screen Shot 2014-06-04 at 7.36.26 pm.png And also when i try and compress it manually or change the partition size it says "Your disc is corrupt" and some other stuff. I'm 14 By the way so I need something simple and not overly complicated, I am using a MacBook air 13" 2013 with i5, 256gb storage space & 4gb of ram. I need a fix quickly as my Windows partition contains programs I need for school

    Thanks!

    Hi DanielA150,

    Please try disabling "EFI boot" from your Virtual Machine as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/121107 and start you Virtual Machine.

    I have this same problem. Everything was fine and then upon a regular reboot, the VM won't start. I have submitted an effort report and support ticket..but I am desperate to get this resolved. Anyone on this thread have solution(s) to share while I wait on support to respond?

    I'm having the same exact same issue after expanding the hard disk of a VM with Windows 8.1 on it. I submitted problem report #57745065
