Slingplayer Crash

billdill · May 23, 2006

Without fail, (no pun intended) everytime I use the Slingmedia Slingplayer software for my Sling Box with Parallels, this crashes my MBP. Has anyone else found a solution to this problem? It happens about 10 minutes into the session.

Really?

I'm the only one with this problem? Okay, then would you tell me your memory configuration?

I haven't tried it lately, but in the past, I've run Slingplayer fine under Parallels....only 256M allocated to VM

By "VM" do you mean the figure within Windows XP or in Parallels?

I have 2 GB of RAM in my MBP. On the resources panel of Parallels I have 1148 MB. In Windows my page file is 900 MB.

Of course lately, for some reason, I have an OS X error message telling me that I have an IP configuration error, but that's another story.
