Windows 7 install on RMBP - Key, but no disc

[JV0808]

Hi all.

I'm trying to download Windows 7 and install it in my trial of Parallels desktop 9.

I have a valid product key for my copy of Windows 7 and a disc that came with it. However, I'm operating on a RMBP and have no optical drive.

I found a random link online and downloaded it, but when I drag that file into the appropriate box in the parallels setup, it doesn't recognize it.

What can I do?

Thanks for your help.

Hi JV0808,

You should be able install Windows using the .iso image file that you downloaded. Please follow the link below for instructions:
