switched os type in vm config to 'windows - xp', result: 24 bit modes are gone, 32 bit modes are here. selected 32 bit mode; no difference regarding lens or vncv. (wondered whether the parallels shared folder feature might work, it seems to be only switched on for the 'right' guest os-es; in the mean time using cifs to access macosx windows shared folders )
