Windows 8 Developer Preview 發佈後 Mowd 一直想找個時間來試用看看
之前就在 Parallels Desktop 6 上裝過了某版本的 Windows 8
想試試看能不能順利裝在 Mowd 新買的 Parallels Desktop 7
Windows 8 安裝玩後一切都很順利，只不過游標移動時會卡卡的
而安裝完 Parallels Tools 重開機後會發現螢幕全黑
這時候就要依照 Parallels 官方人員提供的解決方法
Shut down virtual machine.
Open [Virtual Machine Configuration > Hardware > Boot Order] and locate [Boot flags].
In [Boot flags] write:
Open [Virtual Machine Configuration > Hardware > Boot Order] and locate [Boot flags].
In [Boot flags] write:
devices.video.pci_device_id=0x5005;
Run virtual machine. Install Parallels Tools (if not yet).
Known issues with that workaround: Coherence, Dynamic Resolution, Smart Mouse (Sliding Mouse) will not work.
However, Smart Mouse (Sliding Mouse) can be enabled manually.
Open [Virtual Machine Configuration > Options > Advanced] and set [Smart Mouse] to [On].
This will allow Smart Mouse to work in Windows 8 even when described workaround applied.
