up until now i ran win xp under paralells 3 and i thought to give a try to paralells 5.
i had some errors when installing it but i managed to bypass that.
first error was the virtualisation check when installing...done that
second was kernel panic becaus of my voodoo kernel ...it wasn't named mach_kernel…done that
now it starts...but it says that the main cpu of my mac doesn't suport virtulization so it stops. i know that my cpu doesn't suport virtualization so i can't enable it from bios.

if paralells 3 work fine...is there a way to bypass/remove the cpu check from paralells 5 to run it even if my cpu doesn't support virtualization? if no...why? if yes...what do i need to do?
