I have OS X 10.9.3 and Parallels 9.0.24229. I'm trying to install Win7 Premium x64 from an ISO. Everything seems to go fine. Then after this window in the Win7 setup: Setup Is starting Another window displays with this message: Select the operating system you want to install There are no images available I can't go any further after this. Does Win7 not work with Parallels 9?

Hi brettr2, It's because the ".ISO" image file is corrupted, please download the ".ISO" from http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-59465.iso and try installing it. Please refer: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...05-2be9-4800-bc7f-3ca30356fc3d?linkId=8358296
I removed the old ISO and tried the one you referenced. I get the same exact error. Report ID is 45069309. Do you have some other suggestion?

Hi brettr2, Please follow the steps as suggested below: 1. Please follow the steps suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/4729 to initiate installation. 2. In Step 4 where it says Enter your Windows product key uncheck "Express installation" and uncheck “This version requires a product key” > click continue.
