Failed to Initialize Graphics Display

Post by Daniel Banville »

I am running an XP SP3 guest on a 21" iMac with 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and a AMD Radeon HD 6770M graphics card with 512Mb. I am using OS X v 10.7.4. The VBox Manager Display section indicates 64Mb video memory with 2D Video and 3D acceleration. I try to run a specific game from Sonalysts, Fleet Command, and get the message "Failed to Initialize Graphics display". Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

How have you installed the guest additions in the guest? Safe mode?

Stefan, I had installed in safe mode, but just in case, I reinstalled this evening. Same error message.
