    Hi,

    I am using RC2 (to be able to use my Bootcamp drive). However, after installtion, it prompted that major hardware changes had happened, and windows was prompting me to reactivate windows again!! My windows has already been activated when I did the Bootcamp installation, and I can't reactivate again. Any ideas/advice?

    Thanks;
    John

    It is well-known problem, we working about it and hope fixing it in release.
    It happen because Microsoft test the system on changes. Windows on VM can't stand this test because of Parallels emulate another hardware.
    Now we advise address to Microsoft and explain that you use the same computer.

    Thanks for the reply. I ended up having to call them to authorize my copy on the phone. Thankfully, they didn't give me any arguments. :)
