    Hi. I have had Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac for a while now. I have Windows Vista Ultimate installed in it (virtual HDD, not Boot Camp partition). I have an IR Receiver that came with my Dell Media Center PC. In device manager it shows up as ehome Infrared Receiver (USBCIR). When I plugged it in it failed to install the driver. Under Device Manager it shows up under Universal Serial Bus controllers. It says Code 10 (This device could not start). I tried restarting and looking for drivers and everything but can't seem to find a fix at all. Can anyone help, because I also have a Lumantec Angel USB and I got that working and want to use Media Center to record TV shows. I figured out that even if the OS runs too slow to watch videos and stuff on it, if you use Media Center or if you use a screen capture program and play the video in Leopard its the correct speed and stuff. I am running Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.2 on a Dell computer. Thanks in advance!

    Nowhere in the Parallels license does it state that you can't use Parallels Desktop on a Hackintosh after purchasing it from the official online store for full price.
