Can someone tell me how using the bootcamp partition in Parallels is supposed to work? I was imagining that I would be able to boot directly into Windows via bootcamp OR launch Windows from the bootcamp partition via Parallels interchangably but it doesn't look like that's the case. When I boot off the bootcamp partition either way now I get a choice of Microsoft Windows XP Professional or Parallels configuration then a choice of hardware profiles, Profile 1 or Parallels configuration.
It's asking me to reactivate windows because the hardware has changed so dramatically :-/ I'm not sure how this is supposed to work for sure. Is it basically going to be an either or thing, I'll have to choose to use bootcamp as a dual boot option or just use Parallels to work off that bootcamp partition? If I were just using office apps on Windows it wouldn't be a big deal but I'm gaming too so I'll need to boot straight into Windows for the 3D support sometimes.
thanks!
