    Anyone got the new iMac?

    Are there any problem running Parallels 3 on it?

    It runs for me on a new Imac, but locks up anytime I try to use DirectX. So far I have not got an answer as to why this is happening.....

    Hello!

    Have you already installed Parallels Tools? Please enable "Direct X support" in the virtual machine video configuration (via the "Edit-Edit VM" menu),

    Best regards,
    John

    Yes, I have tried the latest 'official' version, as well as the latest beta version. Yes I DO have DirectX enabled in the configuration options. I have installed Parallels Tools as well. As soon as I try to run anything that uses DirectX, even DXDIAG, I will get a hard lock that usually requires me to power off the mac and reboot.
