    Hello!

    Please read this manual for more information:

    http://images.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/pdf/Boot_Camp_Beta_Setup_Guide_v1.4.pdf

    Please note that all required drivers for Parallels virtual environment are included into the Parallels Tools package. To install the tookit please go to the "Actions" menu and select the "Install Parallels Tools"

    Best regards,
    John

    @johnv: Hi there,

    i have a similar question. Lets say Boot Camp is installed. When i open the Boot Camp installation with Parallels, can i install the drivers which are provided with Boot Camp so that they are active the next time i restart the mac and boot into the Boot Camp partition?

    Best regards
    Alex

    Hello, Alex!

    You should install Boot Camp drivers in the Boot Camp mode only. Restart the MAC, boot into the Boot Camp partition and install Boot Camp drivers,

    Best regards,
    John
