Parallels 4, On AMD?
Does anyone know how to get it working on amd?
I've tried the method for version 3, but that doesn't work anymore... http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/new/ Download Link |

In older versions it was rather easy to install Parallels on AMD, you only had to remove the Check for an Genuine Intel processor and the InstallationCheck file. Now it's a bit more difficult, some files are invisible and there's a check about a hardware virtualization. But I have an idea, will try it.

So, I created a version which is installable on AMD. But it doesn't work when it's installed, if you want to start a virtual machine the program still asks for hardware virtualization and stops then. So you even can't convert the virtual machines correctly.
There occured some strange things: After the installation I got a weird error: Transparent menus and so on, take a look in the attachment. Anyway, I uploaded a AMD installable version to rapidshare, including readme and serials. If anyone will experiment with it, PM me for the link. |

I just turned on virtualization and it installed fine for me.

All I did is turn on my amd virtualization in my bios, downloaded the trial and it just installed and works.

How so? Just wondering since I figured I'd give Parallels a try.
