I just got my new Macbook and have installed bootcamp to run a windows specific application. Everything is working fine, OS X and XP. I wanted to avoid having to reboot each time to switch operating systems.
Apple Store told me to install Parallels. Parallels installation asks if I want to create a new virtual machine or choose a recently used virtual machine. Since I already have a virtual machine set up through Bootcamp I figured to use it. Parallels won't let me select it and continue with the installation. Do I first have to reformat and eliminate the bootcamp partition and start over? Install Parallels first then bootcamp? Any guidance most appreciated.
