Using Bootcamp partition requires admin password

Everytime I start parallels using the bootcamp partition is asks for the admin password. It does the same when quitting. Can't seems to find a reason why. If I run from a virtual disk it works fine.

Anyone else seen this?
 
Not entirely true - even manually unmounting the bootcamp partition prior to launch of Parallels results in a request for an admin password (in fact two times).
 
I am getting this too ..
Parallels 3094
WinXP SP2
Bootcamp install

Whenever I start up parallels bootcamp image, it ask for mac os admin password .. same thing when i shut down win xp.

other than that everything works fine .. its a nuisance though.

I like it when I'm not the only one having the issue.

I'll assume that this is just a beta issue and it will most likely be fixed in the next beta/full release.

Tim, could you add this one to the "Parallels Desktop for Mac Beta 2 build 3094 FAQ" thread? The more you add to that thread makes it easier for the beta testers.

Thanks
