Installing program in Parallels

[Beiteltjie]

I have a Windows program which I need to install on Windows in Parallels. I have tried inserting the CD and running the Setup.exe and also copied all the contents of the CD onto the hard disc and running the setup.exe from there but nothing happens (double click on Setup.exe as well as right click and Open). No error message, no activity, nothing. Anybody who can help met get around this one?

You need to do that within Windows of course.

Yes, that is in Windows Explorer.

Once you've clicked setup.exe have you had a look in Task Manager to see if the process is running?

There is a setup.exe running, but nothing is shown under the memory usage. I will try and kill and and run setup again.

The process did not want to end when I clicked on "End process". I then tried to restart windows from the windows commands (Start > Turn off computer > Restart) but windows does not want to restart. This is getting worse and worse! Any advice?
