    Installing Windows 7 with Parallels and activation?


    Can I use a copy of Windows 7 that I have installed on a computer in Parallels or will I need to buy another copy of Windows?

    You can use the same dvd to install windows, but if you want to activate it, you`ll have to purchase another key.
