Windows Phone 7 emulator - won't run in a virtual machine, workarounds?
Macbook Pro 2011 i7 13". Mac OSX 10.6.7, bootcamp partition running Windows 7. Am running a 240GB SSD and 8GB ram, the computer is more than fast enough to run Visual Studio 2010 in a VM.
If I run Visual Studio from Bootcamp it works fine and develop my apps. Reboot into OSX and fire up the same partition using Parallels in either window or coherence mode I get the message:
Windows Phone Emulator is doing a complete OS boot...."
and the emulator, closes. I've found a few threads and posts about this:

- Windows phone 7 takes forever to deploy
I understand it's not officially supported but if there is a workaround it would be amazing as I'd prefer to "live" in Mac OSX and just use Windows for Office and Visual Studio. I like this working model.
Any workarounds开发者_如何学运维, any advice?
Windows Phone Emulator is a virtual machine, and you can't run a virtual machine inside another one...
Its not likely that you can do this as inside the emulator is Virtual PC, another virtual machine. It would be quite taxing to run a VM inside a VM.
