8 Click Finish and leave Parallels Desktop for a while. It will create a new virtual machine for
you and install the guest OS. Parallels Desktop installs the guest OS, and right after that it
installs Parallels Tools.
9 During the unattended installation, Parallels Desktop creates an administrator account with a
blank password. When the guest OS installation is complete, we recommend that you
change the password in order to protect the safety of your data.
To change the administrator password in Windows XP (Professional):
- Click the Start menu, then select Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Computer
Management.
- In the Computer Management window, open System Tools -> Local Users and Groups ->
Users. Right-click the Administrator account and select Set Password in the context menu.
To change the administrator password in Windows Vista:
- Click the Start menu, then select Control Panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety ->
Change your Windows password.
For changing password in other versions of Windows refer to the Microsoft Help: Start ->
Help and support.
Now, you have the opportunity to install Kaspersky Internet Security program in your Windows
XP or Windows Vista guest operating systems. Choose Install Kaspersky Internet Security from
the Actions menu.
Troubleshooting
There may be problems with localized versions of Windows XP and Windows Vista installed in
a virtual machine with the help of Windows Express mode. If your Mac OS X is set to English
as the default language, and you install a localized version of Windows in the virtual machine,
there may be problems with displaying the Windows Start menu options or the All Programs list
correctly.
To work around this problem set the Mac OS X regional settings to the same language that the
Windows is localized to. When the installation of the guest OS is complete, you can return the
language and regional settings back to the original values.
Typical Installation
1 Start Parallels Desktop. Choose New from the File menu. OS Installation Assistant starts.
