Hi,
I have Parallels 9, I have a 1 TB hard drive that is split in half, MAC and Parallels/Windows 7. The ONLY programs I have installed on the Windows half, is Autocad, Solidworks & Inventor. These 3 CAD programs and an antivirus program are it for that side. But I only have 40 gig left out of 500??? WTF?!?!??! And I can't seem to find out what is using all the space. Damn near no drawings on file, so that isn't it. And everytime I remove and re-install the CAD programs, one of more of them seem to get all kinds of issues with the CAD stuff. It is like it gets corrupted somehow. I am about to give up on Parallels and go back to another damn PC. And I really don't want to do that. But I can't seem to find a way to make this work. Can I maybe set up Parallels and Windows and all that stuff on an external hard drive, and not use it on my MAC at all? If so, how do I go about it? Any help or ideas from anyone will be much appreciated. My MAC is much better than any PC I ever used, but trying to learn these CAD programs is being difficult when I keep having allll these problems in Parallels/Windows. Driving me to a shotgun for the whole thing.
