    I have a Mac Pro with multiple internal drives. 1 drive is formatted NTFS and partitioned for a Windows 7 and a Windows 10 install. How do I keep both Windows showing up in the boot manager and create VMs using those installs? It should be simple. I know that I've done it years ago with much older versions of Parallels, but now I can't find any references. Thanks for looking.

    Hi Ray, If you are able to see all of your internal drives in Mac Disk utility, please follow the steps suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/116235 to create Boot camp virtual machines.

    Ram thanks for the reply. My Windows 7 and Windows 10 drive is NOT created in Bootcamp. The drive and partitions do show in diskutil lists:

    dev/disk1 (internal, physical):
    #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
    0: GUID_partition_scheme *500.1 GB disk1
    1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1
    2: Microsoft Basic Data WINDOWS 7 250.0 GB disk1s2
    3: Microsoft Basic Data BCWIN10 249.6 GB disk1s3

    Could not get Bootcamp to see anything but the boot drive.

    Thanks again,

    Ray
