I'm working on a system that has Parallels Desktop for Mac 6.0 (Build 6.0.12094) running Windows XP Pro. Running on a recent iMac Intel core 2 duo.
I Recently upgraded Mac to OSX Lion 10.7.1, and it has worked great until today. Now all I get is the spinning red "gear" cursor in the dock icon and a black window in Parallels. There was a flash of a Windows XP logo when I started, then the black window. Under the Virtual Machine menu "Suspend" is selected, all other options are grayed out (it's set to suspend on quit - and normally seems to work fine).
Quitting/restarting Parallels just takes me back to the same place, as does force-quitting Parallels.
Why is it stuck, and how do I get it un-stuck? Is it an issue with the Preferences file on the Mac? Any ideas. I really need to get this running ASAP !
PLEASE HELP !
