I recently installed windows 7 on my MacBook. It seemed to be running fine except now it won't let me start the machine. When I open parallels 4 and click the windows 7 VM all the controls are greyed out. It won't let me start it or anything and I have no idea what happened. Any help is appreciated thanks.
