266 Parallels Desktop for Mac User Guide

Overview

In the current version of Parallels Desktop you can use your Boot Camp Windows XP (SP2) or

Windows Vista partition as a bootable disk or as a data disk in virtual machines.

Warning. If you installed other than Windows XP (SP2) or Windows Vista operating system

in Boot Camp, you may damage this installation trying to use it via Parallels Desktop virtual

machine.

Using Boot Camp partition as a data disk

To use the Boot Camp Windows partition as a data disk, add it as a hard disk to an existing

Windows XP or Windows Vista virtual machine respectively. Add the disk with the help of Add

Hardware Assistant (page 190). Windows XP and Windows Vista operating systems will

automatically recognize it as a new disk.

Using Boot Camp partition as a bootable disk

If you install Parallels Desktop on the Macintosh computer with Boot Camp Windows XP/SP2

or Windows Vista partition, and Parallels Desktop detects that there are no virtual machines on

the computer, it automatically creates a new virtual machine for this Boot Camp partition which

is placed to the following location:

<Username>/Documents/Parallels/My Boot Camp

 If the Windows partition is mounted to Mac's desktop, Parallels Desktop attempts to

recognize the operating system installed on the partition and creates appropriate virtual

machine for the recognized OS.

 If the Windows partition is not mounted to the desktop, or if Parallels Desktop cannot

recognize the operating system, it creates a virtual machine for Windows XP. If you really

have Windows Vista installed on the Boot Camp partition you have to change the type of

the guest OS for the virtual machine from Windows XP to Windows VIsta in Configuration

Editor.

Alternatively, you can create a new virtual machine for Windows XP or Vista with Boot Camp

partition as a bootable disk or replace a bootable virtual disk by Boot Camp Windows partition

in an existing Windows virtual machine with the help of Configuration Editor.

Note. It is important to specify the type of the guest OS in the virtual machine correctly, in

accordance with the operating system installed on the Boot Camp partition.

When you boot into Boot Camp Windows, Parallels Desktop creates one more configuration for

boot loader and installs Parallels Tools. Using Boot Camp Windows XP via virtual machine

may require to re-activate Windows XP.

After that, you can use Boot Camp as usually to boot into the Windows partition, or you can

boot into it via Parallels virtual machine, see Booting via Parallels (page 269).
