build 1970 won't boot after mac update 10.4.8

[neil]

Hi I just updated my mac to 10.4.9 and after restarting and running disk permission's parallels won't start , it said there was a driver missing. So I went ahead and uninstalled 1970 and ran 3188 but not sure where my xp vm is on here.

Try using Spotlight to find it. The likely name would be winxp.hdd, but certainly something ending in hdd. If you use hdd for a Spotlight pattern it should quickly find what you need.

Thanks but no luck , when I type winxp.hdd or just hdd nothing found in spotlight
when I fisrt insalled xp on here I created an 8 gb partion do you know where that would be on the mac.

it will be an image in the user name >> library

Finder menu >> view as columns

left hand column

Network
Macintosh HD
___________

Desktop

(Your user name) >> library >> parallels >> my own VM (and the latest clone as a back up)


.pvs 4 kb

and .hdd 15.7GB


Windows Applications 11.7mb

Do not meddle

==============

just follow the route from your username when you want to open a VM
by clicking on choose button in parallels

macintosh HS >> Users >> your own use name then as above


===================

important when you want to use

parallels >> menu > devices > shared folders >> add


to gain better access from inside the VM
