Has anyone out there managed to get SPWaW Generals Edition to run on an Apple computer via Parallels software virtual machine?

Parallels is working well with all my other windows software, but without SPWaW, what's the point.

Running Windows XP sp1, with updated direct X.

It trys to start, but it just opens window then crashes - no errors displayed. The generals edition start screen will open, but you can't open SPWaW from there. I also tried executing mech.exe but it failed the same way.

Anyone have any trouble shooting ideas?

To answer my own question, after upgrading to the lastest version of Parallels running windows xp sp2 / SPWaW now works fine on my macbook. Joy.
