Hello, i have 2 Parallels Desktops for Mac installed. Both @ macbookpro's the first install acts like supposed the second install acts kinda strange, if i select: install Parallels tools, while being loged in my virtual windows XP. After i select the install option nothing happens ....No processes, no upcoming windows as it is supposed to. its build: 1970 the side-effect is, that i cant use my usb2rs232 adapters at this parallels installation. any ideas ? best regards fidel

The CD drive icon should say Parallels Tools. It should start if you click on it. My problem was that one of the first things I did after installing XP was turn off all auto-running of CDs or removable media, and so when I wanted to install Tools, it wasn't working because it my settings had disabled it to run automatically. It sounds like you might have something set like that, too, somewhere.
