I've been hearing a lot of good things about Parallels and thought I'd check out the 15-day trial. Previously I've just been using Boot Camp to run a couple Windows-only apps. I installed Parallels 3188 last night following the "Custom Installation" from the User Manual for Boot Camp installations. Everything seems to work fine except that Windows XP wants me to reactivate it again. I know I only have a limited number of activations, so should I reactivate it within Parallels? And if I do, will it ask me to reactivate every time I switch from Parallels to Boot Camp and back again? Thanks for any help you guys can provide!
I don't use Bootcamp I have a one time OEM inXp Sp2 and phoned for a new code after the second install on the same hardware Hugh W
You should activate it once inside Parallels. After that you should never see any message about activation when you switching from Parallels to BootCamp and back.
Okay, thanks! I activated it within Parallels and within Boot Camp. Hopefully everything works smoothly now. Thanks for your help!
