was working now 'quit unexpectedly'

Running build 1884 on a MacPro.
Have WinXP pro set up - and it has been working with build 1884.
Enabled Shared Folders yesterday - and it worked just fine.
Today ... Parallels closes upon launch with error of: "quit unexpectedly"
If i select reopen then parallels launches and lets me select a VM.
If i select an old VM (that does not have an OS installed - i.e. i abandoned it b/f loading an OS) then parallels stays up and lets me start the VM.
Again ... if i select my 'was working' VM of Win XP then Parallels closes.
What gives?
 
work around

Found a work around - but things are still buggy ...
Copied my 'was working' *.hdd file and pasted it to the folder that has the 'old and never loaded with an OS' files. i.e. Using the 'was working *.hdd file with the old *.pvs file.
When i launch Parallels now it crashes but stays open after i click on reopen.
I'm then able to Start the VM (now with the old *.pvs file acting on the 'was working' *.hdd file).
I've chosen not to enable shared folders - just incase this is the source of the problem.
