    I recently installed Parallels 6 on a MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.5; 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 4 GB MHz DDR3 RAM). Then I installed Windows 7 Home Premium as the Windows program.

    The installation went without any obvious problems. However, when I start Parallels I get a window showing a "Windows Error Recovery" notice (please see screen shot below). "Start Windows Normally" is highlighted, but I have no control with the highlight/cursor in this window. I cannot move the cursor/highlight up or down, and hitting the Enter key does nothing. I have to wait until the 30-second timer runs out and then Windows starts in Parallels.

    I do not notice anything abnormal while shutting down Parallels, so do not what the particular error is.

    Thanks in advance for any comments, advise, suggestions, tips, etc.
