Hello, I just bought parallels and XP so I could have some programs that they only make for windows, on my MBP. Got parallels and XP up and running fine but when trying to get the program to work (compatible with XP-used it on a previous machine), the program crashes, every single time. And help?

Name the program and perhaps someone with experience will be able to help.

Also, if XP has some logging files, go check those out to see if they have any information about the crash.

It's Garmin WebUpdate...trying to update firmware on a Vista HCx GPS unit.

You will be interested in this story. I have no clue if it will help but it could be a new lead.
