    When I switched over to XP from Tiger, Parallels gave me a little window saying that build 5582 was ready to be installed. It also said "Do not forget to reinstall Parallels Tools in your guest Windows OS after upgrading." I installed the upgrade, but I don't understand the last instruction. I need some help in following this. How do I reinstall Parallels Tools in the XP Operating System? Please give me basic, step-by-step instructions. Thanks.

    Hello,

    please do the following:
    1. Open your VM.
    2. Click 'Start' -> 'Settings' -> 'Control Panel' -> 'Add or Remove
    programs'. If you have 'Parallels Tools' there, please uninstall them.
    3. Restart your VM.
    2. In menubar please click 'Actions' -> 'Install Parallels Tools' and
    install Parallels Tools.

    Best regards,
    Stacey
