Hi,
since a while Parallel will not start anymore.

I use a MacMini duocore with 2GB RAM, installed RC1 and a VM with XP-home.
Insteralation was no problem then after a while the XP crached, I tried to press the reload button but nothing happen, since this time Paralles will not able to start a VM anymore, not the exiting one and not a new created when I presse the start button I get the color ball thats it.

No crash info, nothing in the system logs when press appl+alt+esc I see that Paralles would not reakt anymore.


I try to deinstall RC1 and install RC2 the same, even after deinstall RC2 delete all VMs and all in Libary and <user>/Libary belongs to Paralles reboot, new install RC2 he still know from somewhere the old VMs and when create a new it will not start as well.

Any hints what I could check to see why it will not work or what I can do to get it working?
Sorry if it sounds strange but I'm new on MAC.

Hi,
looks like I found the issue, after switch off the USB Autoconnect and the floppy it started.
Maybe it didn't like my UPS which I connected via USB.

OK,
get happy to early!

The new VM was starting fine, after successful installing XP home I shut XP down and closed Parallels (RC2) completle, make a copy of the VM folder in ~/Library/Parallels and started Parallels again and try to start VM again, now same game as before, VM will not start, even not after I let the Mini one hour running without touch him.

As well I can't restart Parallels after forcing a close. Need to reboot the Mini to start Paralles again but same result for VM.

HI,
just to let you know this is fixed now, issue was the USV after remove the USV from the MacMini and deinstall the bulldog software used to maintain it the problems with Paralles are gone until now.
