    I have been using Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac successfully for about a week. I have a MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.4Ghz upgraded to 4GB of memory.

    This morning when opening Parallels, out of the blue, I get this error message...

    "Unable to allocate memory for monitor PE!"

    Anyone experience this or could perhaps provide some help?

    Thanks

    Richard

    same here--"unable to allocate memory for monitor PE"

    Booted up this morning and got the same error message when it has been working fine since the initial install/upgrade.
    What gives?

    Parallels 3.0.4560

    I am having the same problem today. The only change I have made was to install iLife 08 before launcing Parallels after a reboot.

    A change in my status. After 2 reboots of my 15" 2.4GHz MacBook Pro with Parallels 3 Build 4560, it is running again without this error. I made no other changes to any setting. I can't explain why this is now working but would like to know as we are rolling out several more instances of this and will need to support the end users.

    Thanks

    I am up and running again also - for no particular reason.

    This is troubling.
