    Just installed Parallels.

    I have an MacBook Pro with an 80gig hard drive. Parallels is taking up 32gig for the the windows partition. I'd like to reduce this to 15 or 20 gigs. Won't be using Windows much, just need it for a 2 windows only programs that I use occasionally.

    How can I reduce the size of the Virtual Drive? I'll reinstall if necessary.

    Thanks

    If you have an expanding disk (default) run the compressor on the default settings and the space used will come down dramatically.
