All, I am a software developer and have a DVD that contains multiple versions of Windows 10. I have both the Pro version and the Home edition version on one DVD. Parallels, it seems, defaults to the Home version and gives me no choice when loading the OS. I need to be able to choose which version of Windows 10 to install. How do I do that?
Thanks. I actually have the ISO from MSDN. I tried making the DVD which worked. I tried using the ISO file itself before burning to DVD. it did the same thing - defaulted to Windows 10 Home and not allowing me to choose which operating system I wanted. My challenge is to get the DVD/ISO to prompt me for which OS to install. Parallels used to allow me to do this, but somehow something has changed, or I am missing something.
Hi, I'm not sure whether your VM is using conventional bios or EFI bios (I'd want to see a problem report from VM) But if it is using EFI, try to enter system-flag vm.bios.efi.cd_use_noprompt=0 - this can help this can be done in the Virtual Machine --> Configure --> Hardware --> Boot Order; Advanced Setting, Boot Flags area
Hi, Eric, I am using Parallels 11. My configuration menu path does not look like what you posted. I can go... Virtual Machine --> Configure --> Hardware --> Hard Disk 1 or CD/DVD 1 But there is no Boot Order or Boot flags advanced settings that I can find with the options you mention.
There should be, there is a slidebar. Yes, it is hard to notice it - I had missed it too at the first look. The item "Boot Order" as near the top, under the "CPU & Memory"
Hi KenD2, I am having a same issue and going crazy. Can you please advise how you solve this issue. Thanks,
