Sorry! I didn't think anyone cared. I ended up removing all traces of XP parallels that I had installed. I then reinstalled parallels again, and then reinstalled XP, but with the service pack 2 this time. I don't know if that was the reason or not, I kind of doubt it, but it worked. Of course make sure that you have the share folders and files options selected when you install windows through parallels. Coherence worked right away, but the network setting didn't work and I couldn't go online. So, I got rid of XP AGAIN, loaded it AGAIN, and now everything seems to work. I am sure I'll find something wrong at some point.
Is yours not working in coherence?
