I have read and viewed this question on Server Fault and NONE of these options work on a Parallels VM running 64 bit windows server 2003. Does anyone know of any ISO mounting Software that will work on a VM, or how I need to change Parallels to get it working?

@Rajat was kind enough to mention PowerISO and while the device drivers fail, it will still start up and allow me to extract the Image!!

If you need to mount from the guest, then I would recommend Virtual CloneDirve. It works with server 2008.

Virtual CloneDrive works and behaves just like a physical CD/DVD drive, however it exists only virtually.

You're sure that MagicDisc doesn't work? I've used it in virtual machines running under ESXi 3.5 and 4, XenServer 5, VMware Player, and VirtualPC. What does Parallels VM have to do with it? You're installing it on the VM guest, right?
