    Anyone still have the problem described in the attached images?

    I still get the overlay saying that the parallels tools will install on initial boot of XP.
    I can shutdown, and relaunch WinXP and the overlay is gone.

    When I quit Parallels entirely, and launch XP, the overlay message comes back.

    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I'm running 3188 with the most recent tools for that version

    This problem has been ongoing since RC1.

    It doesn't say 'installing', it says 'initializing'. Two different things. There is no fix because it's doing what it's meant to do; telling you not to restart, turn off or mess with the system until it has finished 'initializing'.

    So this behaviour is normal?

    It seems to be normal for Boot Camp installs... IIRC, I haven't seen it on disk image installs.
