Hi ,

I have a Macbook pro 2011 version and I use Parallels desktop 7
I previously ran windows XP professional SP2 on Parallels 7, OSX snow leopard. The combination was slick. never had an issue

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and also Updated parallels 7 software to the latest available version. I am now trying to update from XP to windows 7 professional.

I am running into some issue

1. I gave me some "uattended answer file contains invalid key ...." . As i read on these forums I deleted the floppy drive and installed it" . VM is using 2 CPU's/ 3 GB RAM / 64 GB HD / 256 MB video card memory.

I installed ( Like a MAC)

installation went fine. but I cant access MAC files from windows / cannot copy/cut paste. External USB drives are not detected by windows..

I am waiting for other surprises

is this something you have experienced too ??
How did you fix these ?
Are these compatibility issues b/w Windows7 and parallels 7 ?

Are these common issues and we are waiting a fix from parallels ?


thanks,
kranti
 
This is Parallels Tools issue. Every time you update Parallels - Parallels Tools being reinstalled. Especially when you install new Windows OS - Parallels Tools should be reinstalled as well. They might be not properly installed - so you ned to go to the Virtual Machine menu --> Reinstall Parallels Tools
