I installed the two MacPro firmware updates. I installed build 1908 and restarted afterward. I double-click winxp.pvs to launch Parallels desktop. I click the green triangle.
The VM launches and the message sheet about VT-x slides down. The Winxp initial splash displays. Then the VM window expands to the 1280x800 window size (the VT-x sheet is still there) and then it disappears and the property display is back (with the VT-x sheet still in it!).
The winxp VM cannot complete bootup. This is the same new VM that I build with 1894, it ran great and rebooted several times at first, then came to this unstable condition.
The Ubuntu VM I built with 1894, sometimes runs and sometimes dies -- it gets further up, to the point of letting me login, but sometimes dies as it tries to display the desktop, sometimes keeps going.
I repeat I would be delighted to help diagnose this problem!!! If you have a reliable failure model in-house, fine -- if not, I have reliable failures aplenty and will be happy to run any diagnostics you want.
