PDM obviously doesn't recognize the OS and asks for what OS it is, I selected Win 7. It installs fine and works fine. Careful with Parallels Tools thou, the install left me with a black screen after login, had to use system restore to roll back, don't know if it's related to the fact that the desktop is an app now, thou the login screen appears just fine. I'll try to install the drivers one by one.
 
Zero success with the display issue, turned off aero, and still when installing the tools the screen goes totally black and I can't see the desktop anymore. Restarting shows the login screen working, and it automatically resizes when going from window mode into full screen, so the drivers are somehow working. But when going into the Metro Style Start menu, or the desktop it gets completely black but I can still see the cursor.
