[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1100156, member: 46727"] This happens quite often with Windows XP because of the way its boot sector and system files are organized. The use of Parallels or Fusion to boot the VM from the XP partition sometimes results in corruption of the XP boot sector. It functions fine from Parallels or Fusion but refuses to boot natively.
