since parallels doesnt support native video drivers...or have any

first of all load up bootcamp to make the drivers disc

then leave it as it is...or uninstall bootcamp...

then install parallels and windows xp

then install the drivers disc that bootcamp made for me?

No, if you want good 3D games, parallels (for now) isn't really an option. It can play videos however....and 2D games.

Since the beta of Parallels can run from your Boot Camp Partition you can sort of get the best of both worlds.

Use the native drivers in Boot Camp and use the virtualized drivers while in Parallels.

Nothing will give you full 3D able performae without Boot Camp. (Yet).
