    Hello:

    I just installed Parallels 6 on my iMac running 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 4 GB RAM.
    I have 164 GB disk memory available after installing Parallels 6.

    I originally received a message directing me to partition. I'm not sure what path I followed
    by I got past that by adding a partition. (I'm not even certain exactly what that means--I am someone who
    is only interested in knowing enough to get things to work.

    Here is what is coming up now when I try to open Windows 7:

    First in blue at top:

    Parallels(R) VGA-Compatible BIOS Version 3.0.2111.89721

    Then in grey print on a black screen:

    1536 MB physical memory is installed.
    SCSI controller is not installed.
    Network bootroom is installed.
    Trying to boot from SATA drive 1...

    BOOTMGR is missing
    Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.

    Doing that (ctrl+alt+del) doesn't help.

    Please advise.

    Thanks.
