i have the same problem with u TS. didnt bother looking for a solution since i dun really need windows anyway

i followed the same steps how i managed to install windows on previous bootcamps. somehow i think bootcamp is getting worse :S during the bootcamp beta and v1.0 i hardly get any errors, formatting n merging multiple times. in bootcamp 2.0, after merging, sometimes some files got stuck at the end so u cant partition it again. now bootcamp 3.0 winxp sometimes cant even load.

u can probably use an app called rEFIt. im not sure if it works for windows, but i managed to install ubuntu using this before

haha true, i've installed vista VM before n it was horrible!!!

i tried win7 VM but it's the RC build la. quite stable actually, for me it's slightly slower than xp, but not annoying at all. i guess both choices are safe

Guys, I'm using Parallel Desktop 5 right now with Windows XP installed.. My Mac OS X is currently connecting to the internet through airport wireless network.. However, I can't get my Windows XP connect to the internet at all.. I tried to check under Control Panel in XP and inside Network Connection there's only a single Local Area Connection 2. Can anybody please guide me on how to connect to the internet for my XP Parallel via wireless network? Thank you.

try to find the virtual machine settings in parallel. i think u need to turn off the VM to access it. find something to enable shared connection or something. sorry i cant specify for u, not using parallels here tongue.gif

hey, Im all new to this software, and ive recently installed windows 7 manually, ie via boot camp. After im done with all the installation, i boot back to mac and try to run parallel desktop. When prompt, i selected - use your virtual machine( instead of new windows installation and import virtual machine), and follow the instructions. During the process, approximately 1/4 of it, it says i have to configure it manually. The message is : You need to manually continue the process of configuring the " boot camp" virtual machine. To continue with the configuration, log in to your windows virtual machine. If you have your cd autorun enabled, the configuration should resume automatically.Otherwise, open my computer and run the setup.exe file located on your CD...and so on.

what setup does this refers to? should i quite the software and then restart, because i cant restart my mac with the process is still on going. What should I do in order for it to work?

P.S. im using parallel desktop 5
*
quite weird. u mean u want to configure parallels to create a VM out of ur bootcamp installation right? so u can access that system thru parallels?

i did this in parallels 3 n 4 no problem..no experience in 5 though.

those "virtual machine" i bolded (is that even a word? tongue.gif) do u actually mean boot camp?

yeah, thats what I wanna do.
i dont know, thats what written in the message..have u tried windows 7 on parallel 4?

if that's the message, i dun think you're doing it right. i cant remember exactly, but it's something like going to custom VM, n set from Boot Camp Partition, or something similar. no CD autorun is involved.

i got try windows7 VM but on parallel 5 trial, but i didn't made a VM from bootcamp though. last time i got make for winxp bootcamp

sigh, no choice then. cant use all of my current ram, ie 4GB if i dont use 64bit. Can only wait for parallel desktop to do some updates. sad.gif

well it's not like u can use 4gb if u use 64-bit anyway... OSX need memory too... unless u got 6gb or 8gb ram?

QUOTE(wiraone @ Apr 27 2010, 11:47 AM)
why not try vmware fusion? it has the 64bit supported in the current release ..
