    Hello Community!

    This is my first time asking something here. Im sorry if my english is not that good. Im from Germany and its not my native language.

    My Question is: Is it possible to integrate an existing Windows 7 OS running on an physical PC into Parallels Desktop running on an iMac?

    Im working in a small Computer company and i got a customer that asks if there is a possibility to do so. I know how to integrate an existing OS into an VMware Machine (P2P/V-Adaption & uninstalling all Drivers before integrating the OS) but i dont know if something like this is also possible in Parallels Desktop.

    I hope u guys can help me.

    Greetings

    Using parallels transporter, you can move an existing physical computer to a virtual machine in parallels. So your answer is yes.
