Windows 7 Professional/OSX Snow Leopard Dual Boot

Is there a work-around or fix that would allow my virtual machine to be rightfully considered genuine or am I stuck having to boot natively for this? Obviously, I can work around this issue by just rebooting into Windows out of OSX but I don't feel I should have to do that considering I legitimately paid for it. I validated successfully my copy of Win7 when I first installed it and booted natively (before I even had Parallels) but when I boot the operating system in a virtual machine, I am given errors that my copy is not genuine and it prevents me from performingД¬ertain tasks that require genuine validation.

I also purchased a copy of Parallels Desktop for OSX so that I could boot my Win7 partition as a virtual machine from within OSX if I needed to use Windows on the fly in lieu of a full native boot.

PVM also supports broadcasting (PVM_bcast) which sends to all processes in a group and multicasting (PVM_mcast) which sends to a specific list of processes.I purchased a genuine copy of Windows 7 Professional through Microsoft's Student Advantage program and installed a full copy on my MacBook Pro using OSX's Boot Camp software such that I have two OS partitions: OSX and Win7. User programs written in C, C++, or Fortran can access PVM through provided library routines. Compiling or building PVM programs requires the full PVM installation. There is no 'automatic' installation of executables onto remote machines in PVM, although simply copying the pvm3/lib and pvm3/bin directories to another similar machine (and setting $PVM_ROOT and $PVM_ARCH) is sufficient for running PVM programs. The PVM software must be specifically installed on every machine that is to be used in a given 'virtual machine'. While PVM will not automatically make a commercial software package run faster, it does provide a powerful set of functions for manually parallelizing an existing source program, or for writing new parallel/distributed programs. PVM consists of a run-time environment and library for message-passing, task and resource management, and fault notification. The individual computers may be shared-memory or local-memory multiprocessors, vector supercomputers, specialized graphics engines, or scalar workstations and PCs, that may be interconnected by a variety of networks, such as Ethernet or FDDI. PVM is a software system that enables a collection of heterogeneous computers to be used as a coherent and flexible concurrent computational resource, or a 'parallel virtual machine'.

PVM is free software, released under both the BSD License and the GNU General Public License. PVM was a step towards modern trends in distributed processing and grid computing but has, since the mid-1990s, largely been supplanted by the much more successful MPI standard for message passing on parallel machines. Version 3 was released in March 1993, and supported fault tolerance and better portability.

The first version was written at ORNL in 1989, and after being rewritten by University of Tennessee, version 2 was released in March 1991.

It was developed by the University of Tennessee, Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Emory University. PVM has been used as an educational tool to teach parallel programming but has also been used to solve important practical problems. PVM enables users to exploit their existing computer hardware to solve much larger problems at less additional cost.

The software is very portable the source code, available free through netlib, has been compiled on everything from laptops to Crays. Thus large computational problems can be solved more cost effectively by using the aggregate power and memory of many computers. It is designed to allow a network of heterogeneous Unix and/or Windows machines to be used as a single distributed parallel processor. Parallel Virtual Machine ( PVM) is a software tool for parallel networking of computers.
