Hi Moe, I don't really know the details, just that people mentioned running it in these 2 threads:

In the Parallels forum here:

Someone mentioned that the Direct3D emulation is turned off by default for some reason, so I think you need to turn it on.

Try looking for a "VM properties" or "VM config" screen / Video tab / then a Direct X checkbox to enable it.

Can you find anything like that in Parallels?

Another thing I saw mentioned for Parallels:

"To open Configuration Editor start the Virtual Machine but do not launch the Guest OS, click Configuration."


That may be the spot you need to go to enable Direct3D.
