    Greetings,

    I am using Windows XP SP3 with Parallels 3.0 build 5584. Recently Microsoft released the spring beta of the World Wide Telescope (http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/ExperienceIt/ExperienceIt.aspx?exp=true). This is a wonderful astronomy program, however it crashes within Parallels. To run it, I have to enable Direct X Shaders (experimental) under the video options.

    It runs fine on Windows only machines. Anyone else experience this? Is there a way to fix this problem?

    Thanks,

    A new version of the WWT software was released and this offered no solution to my problem.

    Does anyone have a solution...please?
