Bootcamp and Parallels are two different things. Bootcamp partitions your hard drive for Windows. Parallels is a virtual machine into which you install Windows. They do not affect each other.

What is it you are trying to do and how are you trying to do it?

Have partioned over a year ago - have had parallels 7 running with windows 7 and a lot of windows programs for over a year.

after a shut down; started the Mac - - clicked on parallels in applications - started loading - got restarting bootcamp screen - gets to 100 on spinning wheel and hangs- - have to do a force quit to close parallels

Thanks

Ed
