HELP!!!!
I currently have Parallels 3.0 for Mac, Build 5608. I have a virtual machine with a Windows 2000 Professional Guest OS and lots of apps running on it. My apps are starting to lose support under Win 2000. Apparently there is no clear upgrade path to a better supported OS like XP (Or is there?).
I am trying to wean myself from Windows but the apps won't let me. If I was to bite the bullet and get a new Windows version, XP say, could I create a new virtual machine, install the Windows XP OS as a guest and then migrate or copy all of the data and apps to the new virtual machine? Notice, I say MIGRATE or COPY. I am pretty sure that I do not have the means to re-install all of these old apps.
Is this a pipe dream or can it be done? If so, how would I do it?
Thank you for your thoughts.
PS: I would also probably install the last build for 3.0 for MAC or even go to 4.0 or whatever on the new virtual machine to allow me to upgrade my MAC OS 10.5.8 to 10.6 to get the 64 bit efficiencies.
HELP!!!!!!!
