    Help!!!!
    I recently upgraded Parallels to the latest version 3188 and since then i am unable to boot at startup from my Bootcamp partition. The partition work sfine however with parallels desktop.
    I sometimes get an "unable to boot from Bootcamp Disk" error however i just press the green arrow and it boots the second time round.
    I had no problems prior to the Upgrade

    how do you boot bootcamp? Do you just hold your command key at startup? Do you go to Startup Disk in OSX and change it? Do you use rEFIt?

    Hi,
    I use the command key and select the XP partition.
    It tries to boot but then the computer just restarts halfway thru the booting phase.
    it then allows me to select safe mode etc which then again forces a restrt halfway thru the boot-up phase.
    when i then try and start it with parallels desktop it boots to the Prompt page (Safe mode etc) and when i select start as normal it boots up with no problem.
