Windows 8 using EFI

Hi guys,

I have an iMac mid-2011 which is happily dual-booting Mountain Lion and Windows 8 RTM, both under native EFI (not BIOS emulation).

However, I cannot work out if Parallels can run a Windows 8 EFI guest OS, or whether Parallels can only contain BIOS based Guest OSes.

If it can run EFI based guests, how on earth to I configure it so it can?

Kind regards,
Mark.

I've seen you have, in parallels 8 look in the configure preferences of your VM and look at Boot Order. :)

Too bad you can only use it on new installations, as it requires you to wipe the disk and convert to gpt.
