Asking for a second Activation – Parallels Support Forum
my answer:-

As soon as your VM is running check for registry errors

You may clean up your windows installation with the tools provided by Microsoft

“Check your PC health for free

I go in from the windows live toolbar
MS says once a month

I do it each weekend
then I make a clean clone to an external hard disk FW800 La Cie and run the WinXP sp2 installed VM from there

please let us know how you get on with better housekeeping
