Need for Speed Shift Demo on winXP VM not working

[b2win]

I just downloaded and installed the Need for Speed Shift Demo on my Windows XP SP3 VM.

It errors out whenever I try to open it. Am I missing something or is the game just not supported yet?

I have Parallels Desktop 4.0 for Mac, Build 4.0.3844, and Leopard 10.5.8.

Can't install Need for Speed shift on parallels

Same issue for me, using Parallels 4.0.3846 with a macbook pro (mid 2009) 3,06Ghz on Snow Leopard.
When I start the game, I get a black screen following by the error "could not start the emulator".

Any idea?
