Hi all,
I looked throughout these forums to see if my issue has been addressed but did not see it. Sorry if this is addressed elsewhere, but it seems I have a unique issue.
I upgraded my Parallels 3 to version 5638. Now what happens when I launch parallels from Leopard is, the VM loads but when I get to the windows login screen it will not let me launch windows (XP home by the way). A small window pops up with a big red x and the word ok in it..........no other text is in the warning box. I know, odd even for windows. If I don't do anythingh launch never occurs, and if I click ok or try to "x" out the warning box the log in screen resets back to the login choices, and if I click on a user the cycle begins again.
Now, if I try to load windows straight from Boot camp I don't even get that far...........I get black screen with a text box telling me windows won't load due to missing Dll's or Kernels However, I have had that problem for a while but was always able to load through parallels prior to upgrading the version yesterday.
Does it seem I have a windows problem and if so how would I fix it since I can't get to windows. i would be willing to format the whole partition and re-install windows if someone told me how. I also understand that I don't have to partition anymore with parallels, and could just leave out boot camp while installing windows in Leopard and sticking with just parallels as my windows resource. Is this true?
