Hello, I am new to parallels. Firstly, does windows xp work on parallels?
Second, can i read/write to windows files and mac files interchangeably between parallels?

Thanks.

Hello Alex,
Yes, Windows XP will work fine with Parallels Desktop 11, see this article to know about the system requirements.
Yes, you can read/write between Windows and Mac using Parallels.

I installed windows xp! I have a question? According to this screen shot, it looks like I have only have 2GB of space and have already used quite a bit. Is that correct? How do I expand my VM space?
Btw, do you know how to set and keep the screen resolution size? When I go to full screen the resolution is maxed. I want to set and keep it at 1024 x 768. thx.
