Shimms Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Hello, I've installed Parallels, and created a VM for Windows XP SP2. The installation goes well (although a bit slow) until it gets to "Saving Settings" which from memory should be almost the last step before it loads the Setup assistant to setup your User Name etc. When it gets about 25% through Saving Settings, it crashes the entier computer with the "You must restart your computer" message box. My specs: Pentium 4 3GHz SSE3/NX etc. 1GB RAM Gigabyte 8IG1000MX MB Tiger 10.4.5 VM Specs: 256MB RAM 10GB HDD Acceleration High If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them, as soon as this is working I have no reason to havea dedicated Windows partition anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dripple Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I assume you use the latest beta? There was a rumor around the user forums that the new Mac OS X Intel-version wont run on non-apple OS X. I didn't try it yet but want to check it out next week. dripple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubhead Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Yeah I'm using the latest beta... The New beta 2 of Parallels did it for me Installed fine ..Networking now fixed too and the DVD Drve issue. No complains here. I even could install PC Mac Lan 9.1 so i have Apple File Protocol on XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
