Running Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.2 on new iMac. Migrated entire Mac from previous Mac. Upgraded to Parallels 8. Starting Parallels immediately brings Windows XP Pro Virtual Machine up and it begins an upgrading Windows cycle with message "Preparing to configure your virtual machine..." Will not allow shutting down virtual machine until configuration complete. However, configuration hangs forever. All Parallels menus are greyed out so there is no access to Parallels Remove Machine, etc. Window XP initially installed as virtual machine through Parallels (I did not use Boot Camp ). <user>/Documents/Parallels folder is empty.
Can I safely (i.e., not affect my Mac OS and programs) just re-partition my hard drive through Disk Utility to a single partition and "wipe" all of the Windows stuff and start from scratch?
Btw, have wandered thru the Parallels KB with little luck.
Thanks, FM
