well, i can't figure it out.
installed parallels 4.0. have boot camp partition mounted on the desktop. started and validated parallels 4.0.
got the welcome screen, which i think should not have happened (unless i am reading something wrong).
from HELP
If you install Parallels Desktop on a Mac computer with a Boot Camp Windows XP/SP2 or Windows Vista (SP1) 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 and places it to the following location:
<Username>/Documents/Parallels/My Boot Camp
this did not happen.
ok, i took a different route on the welcome screen (clicked on Start Using Parallels Desktop), the My Boot Camp file was created, i was kicked into the New Virtual Machine Assistant, but am confused about what to do next. do i need to use my XP install disc?
reluctant to go further. HELP!
