Open the Parallels application. Click the Help menu. Choose 'Check for updates...'

version 3120 fixes a lot of problems. Right now it is running flawlessly through Boot Camp on my machine.

Kudos to the company who makes parallels for listening to their users!

3120 is not a final release version. So, it's only accessible from a link in their forums.

I'll let you know tomorrow. The only issue I've been having with the last few builds is that it crashes overnight.

They had to come out with another release candidate, the prior one was just as buggy as the beta versions. I'm holding off until I see how the rtm version holds up. They've been struggling with some serious memory leaks and performance isses. My parallels environment is stable and I need it that way as I use windows to connect to my company and I work from home from time to time

I wasn't saying that I was surprised that they released another RC. I've been checking everyday for another build since the last couple of builds have been crashing overnight every night. What I meant was that I had just checked their forum for a new build and their wasn't one when I posted my first comment to the OP. Then, just a few minutes later, I went back to their forum again and saw that 3150 had been released.
