Update to 4560 and now Parallels exits after few seconds

Hi,

after updating to 4560 (and updating Parallels Tools), my Windows XP VM will exit just after few seconds it's fully loaded and running. Just the time to see the desktop!

The Parallels application is closed and this is the error message:

Any idea?

I've a MacBook with 2Gb of Ram.

Thank you,
Federico

 

I have never seen this kind of thing

how much empty hard disk space do you have?
20 to 30 % seems wise

my VM failed so I rushed out and bought a fire wire to keep my photographs and VM clones on

as soon as the VM had breathing space it worked normally

save data in shared folders too

Wow...thanks!

I had 2Gb free but when I freed 2 more Gb it started to work!

A nice message box would be better than just dying...

Thank you for your help!

I had a similar problem after upgrading to 4560. Win2k would start, log in, run for less than a minute, and Parallels would exit leaving the windows icon in the dock, but with the app itself no longer appearing in activity monitor. This happened several times, but it seems to be working at the moment. Relevant (I think) section of the crash log:
