    I just installed a Parallels 4.0 trial version and then installed Windows XT. The installation went fine but now XT only runs inside a Parallels window.

    I did the same installation on a different Mac except I used Vista instead of NT. It always automatically switches to coherence mode after I launch Vista and then everything runs flawlessly!

    Why does my Vista Mac work in coherence mode perfectly but my XT Mac not only won't switch to coherence mode after XT launches, the coherence button and command are both grayed out so I can't do it manually either.

    How do I get Parallels on my XT Mac to work as perfectly as it does on my Vista Mac?

    Thank you!

    Please ignore this. I thought I had Parallels Tools installed but I didn't. Installing them solved the problem.
