After going through activation hell with MS I finally got Vista Ultimate activated under boot camp. But now I can no longer get in to Vista from Parallels using Desktop 3.0 Build 4560. Below are the log files I see requested in other posts. It takes me to a screen that says that Windows Vista did not start properly and asks me if I want to start vista in Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking, Normal etc. So it does see the bootcamp partition but my guess is there is a file or two that got changed or deleted somehow.
Any help please Parallels?

BTW: Parallels is AWESOME! Keep up the fantastic work!
Update: After trying to boot Vista in to Safe Mode the last driver that tries to load before the parallels session closes is crcdisk.sys if that helps.
