[QUOTE="EndlessMac, post: 999461, member: 140470"] I don't have Parallels but VMWare Fusion 3. I'm sure Parallels can but I can only say for sure that Fusion allows you to use the Windows partition you created with Boot Camp. That's what I'm doing and no you don't need to install Windows twice. If you do then you'll most likely need to get two product keys from Microsoft. You should go to the official Parallels website and read up on the FAQs if you want a definitive answer. A lot of people like using Boot Camp and also running Windows simultaneously on Mac with either Parallels or Fusion so I'm sure Parallels can do what you are asking since Fusion does. I like the option of using one or the other. Most of the time when I need Windows I just use it under Fusion but there are few times when I want to boot natively into Windows. [/QUOTE]
