I am having an odd problem with PD5 and Win XP SP3 guest:
- the guest was a complete copy of an old IBM X31 Thinkpad XP Pro, moved into PD5 with
the PD Transporter tool.
- for the main account (administrator-equivalent) on the XP machine, and using "Window" mode desktop integration doesn't work, e.g.: I have to hit Ctrl+Option to release the mouse+keyboard out of the VM
- 2 Parallel services and 2 processes belonging to it are running on the XP guest.
- desktop integration works after booting the guest, while still on the Windows login screen, prior to login and continues to work if logging into another account that was created a while back. Changing that account to Administrator-type does not break this - it's a regular user account otherwise.
- if locking the machine, and going back to the login screen, integration still wouldn't work. Logging out of the administrator-level account makes integration work again.
What could possibly break integration the way I described it?
There's a number of entries in the log: (C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Parallels\parallels.log) that I don't understand, but that may be immaterial here.
