I am trying to get these two games to work on Windows XP. I am using parallels on my 24" iMac. One is a demo version I downloaded and another is a regular one I own. They installed fine but when I go to open them up they say that they can't run with an "active debugger" in the memory and to close it and try again. I've searched tons online and did everything I could find, I have no debugger! I turned off every possible option and canceled every unneeded process. Does this have something to do with parallels? Anyone know how I can get this to work?

It could have something to do with parallels, seeing as Parallels doesn't have the ability to play most games because it's emulating. What games exactly are you trying to run? :confused:
