I hate Windows

[szasz]

So, XP SP3 is pretty finicky about Parallels Desktop. After hours of Windows install after grueling Windows install, I have determined that if you want to be able to run XP SP3 in a Boot Camp partition both natively, and in a Parallels virtual machine, you MUST do the Windows install in THIS PRECISE ORDER:

1. Boot XP SP2 on the hardware.
2. Install Boot

When I first saw this, I thought you meant windows that let you look outside into the pretty, pretty nature. I thought that maybe a window had tried to push you off a cliff! Glad I was just confused.

Now I'm going to have nightmares about being stalked and harrassed by disembodied windows and sashes. The Microsoft product is bad enough!!!
