    Hello,

    Can someone tell me if there is a way to configure Parallels 4.0 to use the old method of handling multiple VMs where each VM has it's own Dock icon and you could switch between VMs with CMD+TAB?

    We changed the way,
    For now GUI is separate, and VM process is in the background

    Thanks for the response - this is a bummer. It might be easier to deal with, though, if you could at least make CMD+` and CMD+M work as they should. Right now, I have Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server VMs open: CMD+`works from XP, but not from W2K 2003, and CMD+M does nothing in either case.

    (edit: correction- CMD+` works in both, but not consistently - you have to click the title bar of the window first. If you click within the VM, then it appears that this command gets sent to Windows.)
