Troubles installing windows on my mac

Hi guys

So I bought windows and parallel. When I open Parallels desktop software, its want an image file. I click "locate automatically" but nothing comes up.
How do I get that image file, and what is it?
Sorry, im new to this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nickj1,
An image file is an archive file of an optical disc, a type of disk image composed of the data contents from every written sector on an optical disc, including the optical disc file system. image files usually have a file extension of .iso or .dmg
Please follow the steps suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/4729 to know install Windows on your Mac using Parallels Desktop.

I recommend you to refer this article with instructions and video tutorials: http://kb.parallels.com/122673 for getting started with Parallels Desktop for Mac.
