Hello, my new Macbook Pro freezes up when I exit using Parallels 6 running Windows 7.
When I shut my computer down it FREEZES up - BLUE SCREEN, with the revolving wheel.
I have to manually shut off my Mabook Pro by pressing the on button.
I read some blogs that this might be hardware issue….?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thank You.

Post in the Parallels forums. This doesn't seem to be an issue with other programs? Have you shut down Windows 7 properly prior to quiting Parallels?
Hi Sig,
Thanks for the reply. But I do not think this is a Parallel issue.
I have googled "New MacBook Freeze" and I have seen many issues about this "new" MacBook Pro Freezing.
It's not just a Parallel issue, bc. When I properly shut down Windows 7 and when I exit Parallels 6 - my FireFox Freezes, and when I shut down my MacBook, it freezes and does not shut down - it reverts to a Blue screen with the scrolling wheel.
I have updated My MacbookPro to the most recent updates, as well as FF and Parallel.
Any suggestions?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Boot from your OS installer disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Utility.
Will Repair Disk erase any applications? What will this process do?
It doesn't erase any applications. It's Apple's repair tool. Of course you are backed up like you should be.
