"Fatal Error Starting VM"

[MrLynn]

I'm running Parallels 4.0.3540 on a MacBook Pro under Tiger (10.4.11), with an XP SP2 virtual machine.

Normally the VM starts all right, but now and then it will fail to start and return a "fatal error starting VM." This happens repeatedly. The only solution seems to be to restart the Mac. After that, the VM starts fine.

I've reported the problem twice: report nos. 20126 and 24414.

Why is this happening, and what can I do to prevent it?

Thanks,

/Mr Lynn

As a first step uninstall any PowerPC based antiviruses from Mac OS

?? Don't have any. Nor does Apple include any AV apps with the OS, to my knowledge, new or old.

This is a MacBook Pro 2.33 gHz, 2GB RAM.
