Problems getting parallels working at all

Hi,

I have been trying for a very long time to get parallels to work on my machine and I finally need to ask for help.

Originally I had problems with parallels not working with the cisco vpn software, but OS X 10.4.8 seems to have made it better.

I have two problems now:

o if I create a new VM, it will install Windows XP but right towards the end the window flashes with some sort of network error and the VM stops
o when trying to start a VM which has had Windows XP installed (either the failed one above or one I created with a previous version ... 1918) I get a dialog saying that parallels was unable to allocate enough virtual memory

I have tried fresh installs of OS X, created new users, re-installed parallels and I cannot get anything to work.

I really do want to use parallels and I just need to be able to get it working before buying a copy.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I have a 24" intel iMac with 2GB of memory, OS X 10.4.8 and parallels build 312.
