[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1085071, member: 46727"] Yes, as Ivan pointed out you can use your Boot Camp partition with Windows 7 as a VM. Parallels will import it without a problem. However, as soon as Windows 7 is booted in the VM it will ask to be activated again since it "sees" different hardware and thinks it's a new install. But that is likewise easy and should activate again over the net. If it doesn't, a call to MS is all that's needed for activation. Regards. [/QUOTE]
