Problem with Parallels on Intel Macbook Pro

[savanasdad]

I just installed Parallels and Windows XP Pro on my Intel Macbook Pro 1.83 with 1.5 gigs of ram, 100 gig 7200 rpm drive. I then tried to install PTLE 7.0. It installed ok, but won't open. You can see the initial window of PT flash very quickly and then go away. I've done the Windows optimizations, but no luck. Any suggestions? Anyone else running PT on Windows in Parallels?

Thanks

PTLE won't run in any kind of virtual or emulation environment. If you want to run PTLE in Windows on a Macbook you need to urse Bootcamp to create a true bootable WinXP partition on the computer.

Slim Shady: Do you know why? Think the new beta of Paralells with improved USB support will help?

I'm getting a Macbook on the weekend and really hope to run PT under virtualized Windows with an MBox. This is not for serious PT recording/playback. Just for quickly building/testing plugins I'm developing.
