Upgrade killed my install

Updated to newest build of Parallels Desktop 3 for Mac.
Host OS (WinXP SP2) said it needed to update Parallels Tools - this keeps bombing out saying it can't access registry.

Looks like registry corruption
Try to remove Parallels Desktop first as described in

Not sure there'd be a registry problem with only two applications running on a relatively fresh Windows install.
I removed Parallels Tools - tried to re-install - no go.
Going back to an old snapshot - even though they said they needed updating the tools seem to be working so I'll leave them as the old install.
