Error message trying to run Parallels for the first time

Hi,
I've got Vista Ultimate installed on my MacBook Pro via Boot Camp. It works great.
I'm using the 15-day Parallels trial, and every time I try and run it for the first time, it gives me the same error.
After trying to run Windows, it says
"Error: 0xc0000225
Windows failed to load because the firmware (BIOS) is not ACPI compatible."
I have no idea what this means. I ran Boot Camp normally and everything seemed to work fine.
Any ideas?

Have you read through their documentation and installed the necessary tools?

  • I am trying to run facetime for the first time, marks an error, I am trying to run facetime for the first time, marks an error

    Hi! Need help to run facetime, for the first time.
    An error occurs everytime I try, I quit as its says, but not working

    Hello Vivmex,
    It sounds like you are getting the following message, "An internal FaceTime error occurred: There was a problem with FaceTime. You need to quit and open FaceTime again." 
    This message comes up if you double click on the FaceTime icon on the dock.  If you single click the FaceTime icon on the dock, FaceTime should launch normally:
    Symptoms
    When opening FaceTime from the Dock, the following alert message may appear:
    "An internal FaceTime error occurred. There was a problem with FaceTime. You need to quit and open FaceTime again."
    Resolution
    Click the FaceTime icon in the Dock one time, then wait for the application to finish opening.
    Additional Information
    This can happen if you attempt to open FaceTime a second time while it is already loading, such as by clicking the FaceTime Dock icon more than once.

    If you manually open iPhoto do you not see the photos?

  • I am trying to launch Aperture for the first time and it won't open.  Any tips?

    I am trying to launch Aperture on a MacBook Pro for the first time.  It displays "Opening Aperture Library" with a moving wheel... but nothing happens.  Any thoughts on how to trouble shoot?
    Thanks.

    on a MacBook Pro for the first time.
    What do you mean? Have transferred your Aperture Library from a different machine to a MacBook Pro, or did you just upgrade from a previous version of Aperture?
    If it is hanging on opening your Aperture library, your Aperture library may need repairing.
    Make a backup of your Aperture library.
    Double click the Aperture Library while holding down the option-command key combination ⌥⌘.
    From the First Aid panel that appears, select "Rebuild database" (if you upgraded Aperture), else start with "Repair Permissions" and "Repair Database". See this section in the Aperture manual for how to run the First Aid Tools:
    Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    If none of this helps, post back please and tell us more about your Aperture library, where it is located, the type of images: raw or jpeg, if it referenced, the exact version of Aperture 3 you have.
    Regards

  • Running app for the first time NOT

    Suddenly I get this message for some of my Applescript apps I have been using for years,
    "You are opening the application “name.app” for the first time. Are you sure you want to open this application?"
    Even after saying yes and running it the message persists every time. I have verified using the terminal that the quarantine flag is not set for the app.
    Any thoughts on this? Better, any solutions?

    Check your Gatekeeper settings.

  • Error occured while creating site collection for the first time in SP2013

    While creating a new site collection in SharePoint 2013, I need to do atleast 4 times " Go back to Site" begore it appears properly. Could you please let me know why this error is occuering while we create site collection for the first time.
    Is it aknown issue or due to RAM contraints.I am using 16 GB of RAM in Web tier.

    You can get by with 16 GB of RAM so I am guessing that is not the cause.  Although, you could verify your memory utilization during the process.  As long as you don't exceed 95% you should be fine.  Next time, I would instead look up the
    error in the ULS logs using the correlation id and see if you can get more details of what is causing the error.

  • Another problem when trying to open iTunes8 for the first time

    I have just downloaded iTunes8 and after the installation received the message: - "iTunes has been installed successfully./"
    However, when trying to open it, I too have a problem and the message I get is: - "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please re-install iTunes."
    The previous version ran OK and I have de-installed it and re-installed it 3 times and each time I get the same message that it has been installed successfully but the same message sayind ome files are missing when I try to open it.
    I have checked the QTime is up to date and it is. Anyone else had this problem?

  • Issues running SMC for the first time on Sol 10

    I just installed solaris 10, and when I launch the SMC to add a new user I get this error:
    May 18 12:26:24 kahoali.dyndns.org WBEM_Logging_Service[610]: The management domain file:/kahoali/kahoali does not exist or cannot be managed on server kahoali.
    I can't seem to figure out what it's talking about, I have been through quite a few of the settings and files trying to find what it is complaining about.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I've had similar problem. What happens is that teh SMC addresses to the host name and NOT to the fully qualified name, so if you configured your system with FQN like abc.xyz.com, than if your DNS server does not have a valid entry for this host, the SMC won't apply any changes. There are two possible solutions:
    1. Create an entry in the DNS server for the host
    2. Edit your /etc/hosts file to add a host entry like this
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    192.168.1.10 abc.xyz.com
    192.168.1.10 abc
    where you will have both host name and FQN resolved.
