Hi Everyone,

I was just curious, I have windows vista running on Parallels 6 for mac. Can I have Windows XP running as well? Im actually new to this and I have an old game that can only be run on XP. If I install XP for P6 it won't override the other right?
 
You can have as many virtual machines (VMs) running any combination of operating systems that you want, only limited by hard drive space. Having multiple VMs actually running at the same time is also possible, though it would be a huge drain on system resources (especially RAM).

Make sure you have at least 50% of RAM left to Mac (or 4 GB in you have more than 8 GB RAM on Mac)
e.g if you are running 2 VMs at the same time with * GB of RAM on Mac - your both VMs should consume not more than 4 GB in total (2 GB for each).
