    Hello @ all!

    I´m using Prallels 3 (Build 5600) and WIN XP (SP II) on my MacBook (2.16 GHz, 2GB RAM, OS X 10.5.3).

    I have two Snapshots in my Snapshot Manager. To save disk space, I want to delete them. But, when I delete one or both Snapshots (needs 20 minutes to delete them) and try to boot Windows after that, I only got that Windows error screen which ask me to boot in "safe mode" - when booting then in one of those "safe modes", the screen will remain black and only a white and frozen "prompt" appears in the upper left ... nothing else!

    What can I do to delete those snapshots & use the current state of my VM?!

    Thanks a lot!

    Boot from the last snapshot and shut down windows normally, then run the Snapshot Manager and delete them, be sure you have the 'You are here' AFTER the snapshots.
