I am new to virtualbox I have installed the program and installed the operating system no hassles.
When I put virtualbox into full screen mode the window does not fill up (please see img)
Can anyone point me to a step by step guide how to fill the whole screen with the guest desktop pls.
Kind regards
Matt

Re: Full screen
The guest has its own virtual graphics card which is completely unrelated to the host's graphics system and physical screen size. For the guest to know how big the host monitor is and adjust itself properly, the guest must have Guest Additions installed in it.

Re: Full screen
Look in the manual first for questions, you can learn a lot. See section 4.
