[QUOTE="codeninja, post: 472085, member: 37063"] [b]"Non Standard Error" Fixed.[/b] I had the same problem, contacted support, and this was the fix. It worked for me so I thought I would post it. How to boot from the Boot Camp Windows partition in case of the following error message: "More than one Windows partitions are found. This is not a standard Boot Camp configuration" Required Steps: 1. Please open Finder, browse to Applications - Utilities, double-click on the Terminal appl. icon, type the "diskutil list" command and hit Enter. Please find the required Bootcamp Windows partition (e.g. 3: Microsoft Basic Data NO NAME 31.4 GB disk0s3) and note down the partition number and the disk number. 2. After that please open Finder and browse to Documents-Parallels and find the virtual machine .PVS file and open it by means of TextEdit and find the following line: Disk 0:0 image = Boot Camp 3. Please change this line to: Disk 0:0 image = Boot Camp;diskXsY Where: X is the number of the physical hard disk Y is the number of the Boot Camp Windows partition These parameters are shown by means of the "diskutil list" command. 4. Save changes, close TextEdit and double-click the .PVS file to start Windows. Example: The result of the "diskutil list" command is as follows: dev/disk0 #: type name size identifier 0: GUID_partition_scheme *465.8 GB disk0 1: EFI 200.0 MB disk0s1 2: Apple_HFS Mac HD 434.0 GB disk0s2 3: Microsoft Basic Data NO NAME 31.4 GB disk0s3 /dev/disk1 #: type name size identifier 0: CD_partition_scheme *352.3 MB disk1 1: CD_ROM_Mode_1 Mac Drivers 306.8 MB disk1s0 /dev/disk2 #: type name size identifier 0: FDisk_partition_scheme *149.1 GB disk2 1: DOS_FAT_32 CHAS 149.0 GB disk2s1 /dev/disk3 #: type name size identifier 0: Apple_partition_scheme *90.3 MB disk3 1: Apple_partition_map 31.5 KB disk3s1 2: Apple_HFS Parallels Desktop 90.2 MB disk3s2 The line in the .PVS file should be: Disk 0:0 image = Boot Camp;disk0s3 [/QUOTE]
