Mar 25, 2007 Parallels Can't Find Bootcamp. Desktop for Mac User Guide, Using Boot Camp Windows XP Installation chapter for instructions on how to configure Parallels virtual. Apr 02, 2008 so i need windows for class. I take my macbook to class everyday. So i need to decide between Vista and XP, and between bootcamp and parallels. I'd rather use parallels, so i don't have to reboot all the time. How is battery life with running a VM? Do you think i'd have better.
“Of all the ways to run Windows on a Mac, Parallels Desktop is my favorite because it just works. It's fast, it's reliable, and there's no need to futz about with confusing setting or convoluted setup processes.” “Unlike Apple’s Boot Camp, Parallels lets you run both operating systems at the same time.” ”Parallels Desktop is the easiest, fastest, and most tightly integrated app for running Windows apps or the Windows desktop in Apple OS X.” “It’s always been astonishing that it’s faster to start up a Parallels PC than a real one. On my MacBook Air, I’m up and running in Windows six seconds after I double-click the Parallels icon.” “The latest version of Parallels, the popular Windows virtualization tool for Mac OS X, almost feels like its trolling Apple.” “The software has been iterating over a decade and now makes Windows feel like part of the macOS. You can also virtualize Linux, Android, and just about anything that runs on Intel chips including another instance of macOS—great for testing macOS Betas!” 2. Install
There are several ways to install Windows, Linux, or any other supported operating system in a virtual machine. Take a look at our most popular options:
