I re-installed Parallels 4.0 and Windows XP and everything is working wonderfully so far. I tried installing a program and it said I had insufficient RAM. It required 1GB and it showed I only had 512 MB. I have 4GB on my Macbook. What is this reason, or can it be changed?
 
shut down the Virtual Machine but don't quit Parallels

Select this menu entry: Virtual Machine -> Configure

In the dialog box that appears, select the tab "General"

There you can set your VM's memory. I would recommend not to go beyond 1 GB, maybe 1.5 on your set up.

Good luck!
 
this is how good my mac book pro is


is it fine to go beyond 1.5 with this one

there is no way you can play GTA 4 with Parallels, it's even struggling with Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro 5,3 (30FPS @ Xbox settings)
 
Hi,
currently, you cannot run GTA 4 in Parallels Desktop 5. Parallels is working on it, but no exact ETA can be given.
