    So I've been trying to get GMATPrep working in Parallels/WinXP SP2. With the old version of Parallels the program would boot up, but then give an error that I traced back to DirectX when I would try to do anything.

    So I figured the new Parallels 3.0 would solve things. But no dice- now I don't get anything but a plain empty gray box upon starting the program up.

    Can someone else install this program and see if it work on their system? The free d/l link is here; http://rubyurl.com/n6t

    I'm on a Macbook Pro 1.8 Ghz/1.5 GB Ram.

    Thanks a bunch, Matt

    Hello
    Did you try to enable DirectX support in Configurations->Video?

    From what ive see you

    download the new JavaRe

    then go to the GMATprep folder in program files

    delete the files in the jre folder

    go to the java folder, copy thos files to the new jre folder.
