Word from Parallels team on build 3120 please!!

Ive installed 3120 after a bunch of backups ;-) and all seems, well, and seems the sluggishness of 3106 seems gone.

The real test is to see if it survives the night
 
Booting Winxp from Boot Camp

I just installed the latest Parallels build 3120. I have also installed Win XP in Boot Camp and I would like to know how to go about booting win XP from Parallels without rebooting the computer. I tried to install a new VM but there was nothing about using Boot Camp.

About your keyboard problems - was it so in Beta3?

Hi Andrew:

I'm using 3038. In that version the keyboard is working fine.
On 3094, 3106 and 3120 the keyboard is working bad and it is working in the same way. On this three version the "key reordenation" is the same.
Also more:
Letters (from A to Z including Ñ) are in the right position. Numbers also. But Shift+Number key produces an incorrect symbol "ª!"·$%&/()=". Keys ? and ¿ are bad. Key "ç" is changed with "´", = produces "P"....
I'm a programmer so...you can understand... Any combination with Alt or Shift is going bad (it is curious that {}[] are right!).

Do you need more information?

Thanks in advance.

The solution will be
1. Booting XP into Safe Mode.
2. Uninstalling Parallels Tools via Start->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs.
3. Booting into regular mode.
4. And installing Parallels Tools again.

Or alternatively
1. Getting VM from backup.
2. Starting.
3. Ignoring Windows prompts to install any drivers.
4. Installing Parallels Tools
5. Rebooting.

Best regards,
Tim
