    Suddenly my Windows 7.pvm file shrunk from about 65GB down to 1.45GB. Naturally it will not boot now. Fortunately I have (I think) everything backed up but I would be very happy to avoid having to re-install Windows or at least having to restore all my files. So...

    1) Is there any hope for recovering the PVM and booting back in again?
    2) The PVM's contents include a file Called Window 7.hdd sized at 1.44GB. I tried opening it with Parallels Mounter but literally nothing happens. Is there any way to mount this to see what files might be there?

    Thanks ever so much,
    Chris
