Don't know how this happened, but I can't get the VM to start in parallels. For the most part, I've never had any trouble with Parallels, but now when I try to start the Virtual Machine (Windows XP) I get the rainbow spinner indefinitely. When I would try and force quit Parallels, the Mac would come up with the grey screen telling me I had to shut off my computer.
I went through this 2-3 times then tried downloading/upgrading to latest 3.x version. Did the same thing, except that at least this time it didn't crash when I tried force quitting, though I don't believe it really quit. It's still lit up on my Doc at the bottom of the screen, and I can't seem to kill it.
I don't recall anything odd bringing this on. It's possible that the last time I had parallels successfully running I shut down my Mac without properly closing all the programs. Other than I'm stumped. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated...
