Mac OSX Hangs/Crashes using Parallels Desktop 5

[EdsonS]

Well it's a strange problem that I am encountering... I believe parallels crashes my mac as it only happens when my Mac is running a parallels Guest OS.

It's a very intermittent problem but I can tell when it's about to happen as the machine suddenly starts slowing down and becoming less responsive then all of a sudden it just dies on me! Sometimes this happens when I open more than one machine at a time.

I am running the latest software versions of parallels and Mac OSX, my macbook pro has 4gb RAM and is the 2.93 17inch version running a 7200 RPM hdd.

Is there any logs or anything that would show that the system crashed? Occasionally I get the turn off page error but more often than not the Mac just freezes and dies. And only a power off and power on will work...

Please help me!!!

Thanks

dear Parallels team,
i am experiencing a problem with PArallels desktop. it simply quits all by itself (after some while of opening it and operating on windows) and relaunches with no error report nor anything.
i am running Windows 7 experimental version on it.
any fixes that you may suggest? this is becoming really frustrating so i'd appreciate your help.
cheers.

Parallels should suggest to send a problem report at crash, It would be nice if you could send a problem report and post here its number.

Alternatively report can be sent from menu Help, but I'm not sure that it will contain required crash-logs....

I am experiencing the same problem. Parallels is crashing the mac. The logs show it is memory related. Has there been a solution to this. I do have an open ticket and the mac fuse update was the last thing we tried. Parallels crashed everything again...has anyone resolved this?
