Hello,
i solved the problem. It looks like Windows 11 24h2 is not working which will be downloaded from parallels.
I downloaded Windows 11 23h2 and the installation works fine. Just googele windows 11 23h2 arm download and find a secure source to download it and choose the iso file for installation instead of the suggested file.

Do you have a particular website you would recommend? The only one I found fails the download no matter what.Hello,

Hello, i found a link to install win 11 23h2 https://archive.org/details/windows-11-23-h-2-arm-64
Do you finally solve this problem?
If i remember correctly, this was caused by NVMe being broken since 24H2. When creating a new VM, choose to customize settings and change the hard drive interface from NVMe to SATA. Downgrading to 23H2 is not really useful because the issue will reappear as soon as Windows updates itself.
so the only way to use parallel 17 normally is to download this old win 11 23 h2 through this ultra slow archive Link
or upgrade to parallel 20 ?
lol the after sales service of parallel are trash
the least they can do is include a link to download old windows or automatically download the old windows , not letting us installing new ver windows not compatible wasting our time searching around eventually leading us to here ?
This may be a workaround for some of us, the article describes how to limit the HMB in the registry so it doesn't exceed 64MB, which is the threshold where bad things can happen (especially on specific WD NVMe SSDs).

I was encountering 'inaccessible boot device' after the first reboot when installing Windows 11 on a BIOS-configured RAID 1 array. It turns out that the RAID drivers I loaded at the start of the installation process were not copied over to the Windows drive. Here's how I used DISM after the first reboot to install the drivers and continue the installation:
1. **Boot into WinRE:** Use your Windows 11 installation media and select 'Repair your computer' to access the Command Prompt.
2. **Identify/Assign Windows Drive:**
* Type `diskpart`, then `list volume`.
* Find the volume corresponding to your Windows installation. If it lacks a drive letter:
* Select it using `select volume #` (replace # with the volume number).
* Assign a drive letter using `assign letter=D`.
* Type `exit` to leave diskpart.
3. **Inject RAID Drivers:** Use the DISM command:
* `DISM /Image
:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:E:\Drivers /Recurse`
* Replace `D:\` with your Windows drive and `E:\Drivers` with the path to the RAID driver folder.
* If the drivers are unsigned, add `/ForceUnsigned` to the end of the command.
* If you have a single .inf file, use `DISM /Image:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:E:\Drivers\yourdriver.inf`
4. **Reboot:** Close the Command Prompt and restart. Your installation should proceed as normal.

I suggest using official Microsoft file found on https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11arm64
