    At the moment, I have been watching the parallels desktop, with Windows inside sitting at "setup will complete in approximately: 33 minutes" for over an hour. The cd is no longer whirring......

    Any suggestions?

    Just thought I would post a follow up.

    I tried pausing the session, and then started back up, and nothing new happened. I then quit parallels, ejected the XP installation disk, and then immediately launched Parallels again. XP asked for the XP installation disk, and from then on, the installation progressed as expected.

    Installation stopped for some reason

    Hello Parallels Users!

    If Installation is stopped from a CD , so it is likely not to be installed at all.
    The workaround to this rare problem is to make iso image file and run windows installation file from windows file...
