Configure VM Inaccessible - Lion

[Glen Malan]

Running Lion and Parallels 6.

Click on menu to configure the VM. Configuration dialog opens but cannot be seen unless you look for it via expose (show all open windows for app - 3 finger down gesture). Click on the dialog in expose but it never activates for me to configure the VM.

Any fixes or help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Per my post the issue is Config for a Parallels XP VM and has nothing to do Bootcamp. It is definitely a Parallels issue.

Window 7 (Bootcamp) not properly authenticating when running as a Parallels VM is a parallels issue. http://kb.parallels.com/9703
However, if I was to blame somebody it would be Microsoft for their horrible authentication algorithm.

Networking issue turn out to be Lion which does not share Snow Leopard SMB file shares.
Fix for that is to simply turned off SMB shares and then turn them back on again.

I assumed you were running both through bootcamp, sorry

I had to do this once I just upgraded to Lion in order for my whole VM screen to appear. It worked great the first time however, now I'm experiencing the same problem most of you are with not being able to get to the configuration dialog. I have deleted all spaces and re-created them to no avail sadly. I've also completely restarted my machine, re-launched Parallels, uninstalled and reinstalled parallels, and no luck.

HELP!!!
