sounds to me like your cable slide is tearing up your string and cable. some of them will do that. your string and cable aren't touching are they?

You might want to try a different slider. They are pretty cheap to replace. Basspro stock a couple. A new slider will cost alot less than a new set of strings and cables but my guess is that the OEM stuff on a Parker are probably not the greatest anyway. I found my Reflex strings pretty poor quality.
