As for the original question. Rev 2.8 works very well in both the virtualized and the native environments.
I just installed the Parallels 3.0 release candidate 3 and I'm happy to say that both issues I had before are now resolved. The cursor will set to "none" and the DLL that was broken before now works fine. I really like the features in this new release, especially the very quick "pause" and "suspend", which used to take a long time.
That said, I used "check for updates" to update my copy of Rev to 2.8 on Windows. Installation went smoothly, but it crashes on launch immediately. There is no crash log created. I uninstalled, downloaded the full installer, and reinstalled. The crash still occurs. I can't start up 2.8 at all, even though 2.7.4 runs fine. I see the opening splash for half a second, then it crashes while "loading menus" (which I think is the first thing Rev does on startup.)
When I installed this latest version of Parallels, I had to do some updating of Windows OS itself. The "found new hardware" dialog appeared but I canceled it, thinking I'd check later because I needed to install the new Parallels tools first. When I went back to add hardware, Windows could not find anything new to add. It also told me that some original files had been altered and wanted to look on the install CD to replace them. I figured these were also Parallel Tools files, so I canceled that too. (Why doesn't Windows tell you what it is doing? "Some files" is not very descriptive.)
Do you know if either of these things might be the reason 2.8 won't start up? Or does anyone recall what "hardware" had to be added to the new 3.0 virtual drive? All older versions of Rev run fine in this new version of Parallels.
