    I just set up my XP pro to the network domain and I have discovered that the ctrl, alt, delete function does not work in the parallels virtual window.

    Does any one know what keys need to be used or is there a work around

    There is one that I know:

    Parallels Desktop menu bar -> Actions -> Send Keys -> Ctrl+Alt+Delete

    On a Macbook, or Madbook Pro, you can also use the FN+ctrl+Alt+Delete key combination.

    Hmmm, FN+ctrl+alt+Delete doesn't seem to work on my keyboard... Any suggestions?

    Have you tried restarting your Mac?
    This will sometimes help.
    The other option is to select Ctrl+Alt+Delete in the Parallels menu --> Actions --> Send Keys
