Hi all. (First timer here, sorry if anything with my post is wrong :P)

When I have Network activated in Parallels settings (any settings with it activated) and tries go online on my parallels. My computer freezes after a couple of minutes.

My computer:
Windows XP
Pentium D 3,4GHz
2GB Ram

Guest OS:
Windows XP
1GB Ram
5000MB HDD
Sound, activated (SB Live!)

As I said before, when Network is activated my whole computer freezes after a couple of mintes online time, and I need to restart it "the hard way" to make it work again.

If you would like to know anymore about it, please ask. I can provide much more information. Just ask, I wont bite ;)
 
sb live is your problem. Creative cards are rubbish. You need to get an M-audio card. Get the Revolution 5.1 or 7.1. One of the best PC quality cards you can buy - withought bells and whistles of stupid cards
 
As I said, only when the network is activated my computer freezes, else it works like a charm.

And it worked perfectly with older versions of Parallels

Okay, I did some more research and found out that one of the cores got maxed out (100% CPU on core no. 2) and I couldn't move anything and everything stopped. It's still ONLY when internet is being used by Parallels Guest OS (and activated).

Anyone knows what the problem is? Or maybe the Parallels programmers? ;)
