Hi, Hope someone can help me with this problem

I recently purchased a new mac and at the time decided to do a clean install of Windows XP using Parallels. It wouldn't work, the installation failed attempting to load XP ( It was my own genuine windows xp disc).

Today I received my new Windows 7 disc and it does the exact same thing. I run through the assistant, create the VM but when it tries to install Windows 7 from my disc I get a fatal error.

When I bought my machine, a Mac Pro, and loaded up all my software I decided to move my home folder to another drive (to give me more drive space).

Is it possible this is the issue?

I'm running the latest version of Parallels.
 
help?!

I have the same problem....can't install windows xp on my Parallels VM (4.0). What do you mean nominate another drive to install on? (sorry - not so techie literate...)
