    Do you mean disconnect the CD/DVD-ROM from Parallels, eject it from the Mac, put in the other disk in the Mac, reconnect it to Parallels, and then go on with the install?

    Are you sure this will work? I've read a lot of posts about Parallels losing connectivity to the CD/DVD-ROM. The suggested workaround is to restart Parallels with the CD already in the drive.

    I suppose when it needs the Windows XP CD again, you perform the same process again?
