Jeff-

Have you tried running an older version of ETKA I've got 5.?? on my mac titanium powerbook which is an older unit and run it in virtual PC OK.

Thanks Tim and Neil and everyone else who replied. Unfortunately there's little help on the Parallels Forum except for some VAG COM info. Nobody on the forum ever really followed up with an answer to that same error message I related in my previous post, and no one else has posted with 'ETKA' in their post.

The link that Neil sent has some good info that I'm working through now - the consensus seems to be to get every last file related to ETKA off your system before you try a reinstall.

I also need to try an install in Boot Camp vs. Parallels.

I report back if I have any success.

BTW -- what was the last ETKA version before 7 and might that be a better way to go?

Jeff
