    Hi,

    I'm facing a weird issue : I want to install W7 into parallels v5 on my iMac, I run the setup from a disk image, it starts ok but as soon as I get to the first window that asks for language setup, I can't do anything more : keyboard and mouse are not responsive in the parallels windows seven installation window, whatever I try.

    Of course at this stage I cannot install the parallels tools, W7 is not installed at all yet.

    I could successfully complete the install with the W7 same disk image into Virtual Box, but I want to do it in parallels.

    Any idea ?

    Thanks

    Are they USB keyboard/mouse or bluetooth?

    It's a USB keyboard and a bluetooth mouse.

    I've been able to install other VM into PD with the same hardware (but on previous versions of PD).

    FYI I finally bought PD5 upgrade and then it worked fine ==> it was an issue of the beta test version.
