I want to install TomTom Navigator 5 ( a pocket pc app) on my Mac Mini. Is it possible to install a Pocket PC virtual machine in parallels? Or failing that is there a virtual pocket pc machine for XP that I can run in Parallels?
You can install PocketPC emulator (as a part of microsoft Embedded Visual Studio or separate executable) in your guest Windows XP and will be able to run all PocketPC applications. With this additional software it is possible.
Thanks for the information. Do you anticipate a problem as I will be basically running Intel OS X > Parallels > XP emulation > Pocket PC emulation > Pocket PC App (TomTom Navigator 5). Seems like an awful of emulation!
The WinXP is NOT emulated under Parallels since it's a virtualization. The only emulation occuring is the Pocket PC stage.
That makes sense Wesley. Does anyone happen to know wether the Pocket PC Emulation itself can be done in Windows 98. I am presuming that a Windows 98 install will be more compact than XP.
