Hi! Help!
Specs:
Macbook Pro (2.33 core duo) with 1gb ram running Mac OS X (10.55) and Parallels Build #5608 running a bootcamp partition which has Windows Vista Business Edition
It worked fine for the longest time - i could boot Vista directly using the bootcamp partition or via parallels accessing bootcamp. Recently (and I realize this may have been bonehead) in order to free up disk space i went through and uninstalled a number of programs. To my credit, I was very careful about doing so...maybe not careful enough? anyway, ever since i shut down that day, I have been unable to get back into Vista using parallels. I CAN go through bootcamp with no problems.
Each time i try, the initial window flips around, starts through the boot process, tells me it shut down incorrectly before, and no matter which i choose (normally, safe mode, or any other) it instantly goes to black screen (like normal) and then the window flips back around to the default configuration window. No error message or anything.
It doesnt even get to the bitmapped windows screen with the status bar at the bottom
I've tried using different memory combinations (up to 1gb, down to 225), tried updating parallels again (to the same version i had installed), nothing has helped.
Other questions:
9. If Parallels Tools are installed NO
10. Anything you have tried to get things working Above
11. Anything specific about your set-up you think we should know dont think so
12. If you are crashing, upload some crash logs Since i'm getting no error message, would there be a crash log? Where can i find this to attach?
