    Hi!

    I just moved my Win XP system to IMac (Parallels 3.0) and Windows do not start in normal mode - they hang during the initial screen. I can start in safe mode with no problems. The Windows PC also starts normally. Also, when I tried to start in safe mode with networking, I got a message "This copy of Windows needs to be activated with Microsoft before it can be used...". It's, of course, a legitimate copy, already activated and working on the PC. Any suggestions?

    hi,

    after moving Windows into VM it starting now at the new hardware environment and your activation data is invalid now. You can activate it again by phone.
