Hi all - I've searched the forums for a solution to this problem but haven't yet found one. If it is already out there and I missed it, my apologies.
Here is what is happening...
1. Mac OS Version - Leopard
2. Parallels Build # - Just upgraded to 5580, but the problem has been consistent across all builds.
3. What kind of computer - Macbook Pro - 2.4 G C2 Duo
4. Total Physical RAM - 4 GB
5. Hard Drives - 1 250 G
6. If you are using a BootCamp configuration or not - Yes, using boot camp.
7. Did you upgrade from a BETA - no, installed released version and then upgraded to 5570 and subsequently 5580.
8. With what Build did the problem start - Problem has been consistent across all builds.
9. If Parallels Tools are installed - Yes (that's part of the issue)
10. Anything you have tried to get things working - see below
11. Anything specific about your set-up you think we should know - see below
12. If you are crashing, upload some crash logs - N/A
13. If you are getting an error message type it in and then attach a screenshot. - N/A
14. If you are having issues with a specific component (i.e. mouse, keyboard, monitor) tell us what it is. - See below
OK, so here's the deal. Created a boot camp partition, installed Vista Business version. Subsequently installed parallels and told it to boot from the boot camp partition. When it first booted up (as expected) Mac OS X prompts me for a password. Then it went through and installed parallels tools. Here is where it gets weird. I shut down the VM and reboot. The mac acts like it's never booted before, asks me for a password and parallels goes through the whole tools installation again. This happens every single time I boot the VM. I've checked every configuration I know and can't find anything.
Other than that, once it installs parallels tools every time, it works ok.
Any ideas? TIA
