    Hi, I'm trying to migrate a physical windows xp 32 pro installation to a vm on a mac. The migration seemed to go well (though it took 16 hours to migrate the 30GB disk), but now I'm faced with a black screen and this message:

    All the docs I can find seem to expect that after I "OK" this dialog, windows will boot and I'll be able to log in, but nothing happens for me. I just get the black screen eternally, and machine seems to be doing nothing special. If I "Reset" the VM, I end up at the same black screen.

    Any ideas very much appreciated !

    Thanks

    Same Problem Here!

    I am trying to migrate Windows XP over to parallels, the conversion process ends in a black screen after Parallels advises me that I have to login. Reset, Restart both end up at the same place. The Black Screen Of Death. What can I do?
