    Has anyone out there been able to use "Home Design 9" Software on a Snow Leopard Mac with Parallels 5 or 6?
    I cannot get HD9 to load because the Parallels Mac does not see the Mac's CD Drive "D" Drive when loading???
    I would rather use Parallels than do a Bootcamp partition, etc.
    There is some simple little glitch in loading the HD9 on to the Mac?

    I tried to solve this problem a while back with no understandable solutions offered.
    I appreciate help very much.

    I've been able to load and run Chief Architect 10 with Windows XP SP3 in Parallels 6. I'm running on Mac OS Leopard 10.5.8.

    However I've found that certain keyboard + mouse commands don't work, ie a shift+mouse drag will not 'hold' to select multiple objects. ARGH. Anyone familiar with CAD software understands the importance of multiple selection. Still trying to evaluate whether it will work or not before I uninstall and try setting up BootCamp.

    Thoughts anyone?
