Parallels WorkStation 2.2, ESD, Edu, 10-24u, EN WWL2XL-A02-EN Manual Do Utilizador

Mouse Synchronization Tool 

The Mouse Synchronization Tool enables the mouse to be 
captured and released without a special hot key combination 
defined in the Hot Key Combinations (page 98) tab of the 
Preferences window. Using this tool makes mouse 
movements smoother and improves system reaction on 
mouse. This tool is especially effective when running 
Parallels Workstation on a remote terminal.  

Sound Driver 

Parallels Tools pack includes an AC'97 sound driver for those 
guest operating systems that do not contain standard AC'97 
driver.  

Sound drivers for Windows XP/2003 are not included in the 
Parallels Tools pack since these operating systems contain 
sound drivers in their installations. 

Shared Folders Tool 

This tool is needed for a guest OS to view shared folders. 
Without it, the guest OS can not use the shared folders 
although they may be set up in your virtual machine 
configuration. To learn more about shared folders see Using 
Shared Folders (page 133). 

Disk Compacting Tool 

Parallels Workstation uses virtual hard disks of two types: 
plain and expanding. Expanding virtual disks grow in size as 
you work with them. The Disk Compacting Tool reduces the 
size of expanding virtual hard disks by cleaning up unused 
disk space. See Compacting Virtual Disk (page 169) for 
guidelines on using this tool. 

This tool does not reduces the size of plain virtual disks.
