I upgraded from V3 to V4. I'm following these discussions and have reinstalled P Tools, and adjusted the memory as shown below. The trade-off from this was re-registering WinXP SP3 with Microsoft. If I leave my VM running in Coherence mode, in the morning when I wake the machine, Coherence mode is missing from the desktop. Even with Parallels running, the Windows task bar is gone. As a workaround, I have to switch to Windows mode, and let the runnign app screens populate (Outlook, Word, Explorer), and then switch to Coherence. This workaround takes 5 minutes or so, and is an exercise I have duplicated for for 3 mornings in a row. Anyone else running into this?

John - After upgrading to 3540 which took about an hour, I still have the same exact issue with Coherence disappearing at wake up. Nothing has changed.
