    I have a 27" Mac with Parallels 10.10.2, Yoesmite 10.10.5 and Win 7 installed. All run OK.
    I have a language dictionary app on CD.
    I have Win 7 installed as above.
    Inserted a the application CD in the Super Drive.
    Opened Explorer and found the disc and canb read some file.
    When executing the program from the CD, it fails with a 'No Disc Inserted' message.
    Have tried moving the .exe to the C: drive, but get the same message.
    The application provider states they only guarantee operation in native Windows, not when run under an emulator.
    Has anyone experienced this and more importantly, found a solution.
    Thanks
    Dino

    Hi @Dinobelf You may get the downloaded file for Windows 7 from Microsoft website.
    Microsoft has resumed providing ISO files for Windows Operating Systems.
    Visit https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/software-download/home and select the appropriate version and edition of Windows Operating System and download the ISO.
    Product Key is mandatory for Windows 7 Operating System. If the license key is not validated for Windows 7 OS then you need to contact Microsoft.
