HI I run Windows 7 32 bit fully patched along with Office 2013 fully patched in a VM on OS X 10.8.2 using Parallels 7.0.15107 on a Macbook Pro late 2008, Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM. My VM has 1CPU assigned and 2.5GB. Running Word 2013 regularly causes crashes - it appears to be related to the use of hardware accelerated screen drawing, as the only way to avoid a crash every two or three minutes is to disable this. Unfortunately the side effect of this is that Word stops being nice and fast and crawls like an arthritic turtle. Any ideas?
