Cannot Shut Down Parallels 3.0 on Mac OS X

Windows has locked up and I cannot shut it down. If I shut down the entire computer, I only shut down the Mac side, not the Windows side. CTRL+ALT+DEL does not work.

There is an option in Parallel's menus to simply shut down the virtual machine -- bypassing the Windows shutdown process. This is akin to pulling the plug on a real computer -- insta-shutdown.

Thanks. I think that's what I used. I went to Actions>>Stop and that did the trick.

Thanks again for your response.
