Hi,
I wonder what is the best (easiest/safest?) way to transfer programs (and document files, but that is easier I imagine) from my XP Pro in Parallels 4 to my Bootcamp Windows 7 (on the same Mac) and detailed instructions to do this? I have some downloaded (legal) software (i.e. sigmaplot11,etc) that I do not have a disc for and I am not sure how I can transfer them to my new OS.
I have a MBP with Snowleopard and all software up to date as of today.
I am also considering migrate over to windows 7 through Parallels in addition to Bootcamp and then plan to erase my XP VM when that is up and working. Any tips/links on how that would work and how to make it work (I have seen some advices how you can run the same OS in both Bootcamp and Parallels)?
Thanks!!
