    Hi all,

    I have a question regarding the conversion process for Parallels 3 virtual machines, as they are imported into Parallels 4 and 5.

    Essentially, we have domain-bound XP vms, with group policy settings preventing automatic login (or local user login). This obviously interferes with the conversion process, as the virtual machine is apparently restarted a few times during the conversion process, and attempts to log into it's locally created administrator account.

    Obviously, waiting for it to fail, with the "You need to manually continue the upgrade process." error message takes quite a bit of time... I recall hearing about a keyboard shortcut to escape the "New Features!" overlay, and allow us to complete the process manually. Can anyone provide me with this information?

    Thanks in advance,
    Michael
