Windows 7 on a Mac

Written: June 20, 2011

I’ve been using software from Parallels to let me run Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro for almost one year now. All has been well until I noticed that my C: drive was getting full.

My first response was to use Google and find out how to increase my C: drive disk space. The first page of search results suggested that I use an App called Image Tool, however I had no such App and started getting upset about not finding it. Finally in a forum the suggest was to Read The Fine Manual (RTFM).

Tough for a guy to do, so once I read the PDF manual I found the gem that I needed:

• start Parallels Desktop
• right-click the Windows 7 machine
• click Configure
• Edit the disk size

I’m now a happy camper with more disk space on C:.

   Usually I don’t comment on yuor blog much but I get a broken theme everytime I load this post (http://tualatinweb.com/blog/windows-7-on-a-mac/). I dunno why but as far as I can tell it’s just with this particular one. Just FYI. Regards, Renelle
