Did standard upgrade of MacBook Pro - Parallels stopped working

Hi,

I've got crisis:

I recieved notice that there were a bunch of updates that needed to be made on OSX the other day, so I downloaded everything and installed it. Thing is, now my Parallels will not work anymore..it does not recognize the installation. When I start up Parallels it takes me through the installation process of Win XP..(!)

Is there anyway to reverse this or get Parallels back..seeing that I do not have a Win XP disc lying around anymore.

If that does not work; do you any way to run Internet Explorer through the OSX? I'm using a software online that only works with Windows and so I thought that if I cannot get Parallels to work, there might be a way to run the on-line thing anyway...??


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Search for '.pvs' without quotes, double-click on that and see if it works.

 

Thank you very much! It worked! I cannot thank you enough! Really..you're an absolute lifesaver!

Have a great weekend!
