Leopard with existing BootCamp = BSOD

[Ekim Neems]

I did a clean Leopard install but left my BootCamp partition in tact. Never booted into it, just into Leopard and installed Parallels. Works fine in Parallels but when I try to boot directly into Windows, I get BSOD.

Do I need to update the BootCamp drivers? I thought this was automatically done. Can I use the Apple software update to update the drivers from within Parallels VM or will that not work? Thanks!

I think you have to shut down (instead of sleep / hibernate) windows in Parallels to allow boot camp to work. Otherwise, google it.

There are new BootCamp drivers on Leopard disk.
