Problems with installing Windows from an .iso

[Theoden]

Hi! First of all "Hello to everybody", I`m new here in this forum!
I`m using a MacMini with the latest version of El Capitan. And I`ve been using Parallels (11.1.3) for years for an Win7-VM.
Now I´ve tried to install a second one for WinXP. I tried it with several own made and also downloaded .iso-files - but it failed everytime...
I can see the following DOS-screen with the messages - and that`s all...
What is wrong there? I`m helpless now at this point und was grateful for every helping idea!!
regs, Theoden

Hello Theoden,
The manual installation of Windows Virtual Machine could be tried to overcome this issue.
To perform this, un-check the 'Express Installation' and 'This version requires a product key' options under the Windows Product Key window.
Let us know how it goes.
