So I have a Macbook Pro, and have sucessfully booted Windows using a program called Parallel. I'm running logic 5 up on windows parallel, can load the songs i have ok, but am having trouble recording any new tracks. For some reason I can't get the internal audio drive to recognize the presonus firepod.
Does anyone know how I might be able to solve this problem? thanks, and take care

The best thing would probably be to export identical-length .WAV files of individual instrument tracks (preferably out of your old PC) and open them in whatever Mac-based DAW you're using now to finish the song.
If you need to use Windows on a Mac for audio apps, I'd go with Boot Camp instead of Parallels. (although I should caution you, Boot Camp is still in public beta. I had v1.1.2 on my Macbook for just this reason, to run my old Windows audio apps, and ended up removing it due to weird blue-screen / keyboard freezing / sketchy drive partition issues. Tracking in OSX now instead.)
