    Hello;

    I purchased and installed Parallels Desktop on my new iMac. I then partitioned the drive and installed Win7 in a BootCamp environment.

    I then pointed Parallel desktop to this install.

    My question is: Did Parallel create a VM file on my MacOS drive, or does it always run from the BootCamp partition?

    In other words, what would happen if I deleted the BootCamp partition at this point?

    Alos, I assume that the VM file (if created) is being backed up by Time Machine, as I hav un-selected that choice in the preferences.

    Any and all help greatly appreciated.

    Larry
