    Hi. I had a fatal crash of the VM. When I tried to restart Parallels using the .HDD file, I got a drop-down message that says:

    "There is no operating system installed in the virtual machine."

    Luckily, I back up my .HDD drive each day. I went to yesterday's back up. Same message.
    I went to the previous backup. Same message.

    Each of these HDD files have Windows XP as the OS, so I don't understand why I would be getting the message. I don't have the OS disks anymore.

    Detailed message attached.
