OpenGL/3DsMax Getting guest additions installed without vga

Post by Ceadro »

Hi,

I would like to start that I realy enjoy Virtual box and its getting better every update.
I still have a question about 3d support with OpenGL..

I've installed a windows XP guest virtual pc with VirtualBOX.
I then tried to get 3ds studio max installed on it an run it in Opengl mode without guest additions.
Suprisenly it worked verry well. It all ran verry nice with my Host graphics card (8800GTX)

Then I wanted to get shared folders working wich means I had to install VB guest additions. Then the problems began..
Once ive had guest additions installed my shared folders worked like a charm. However,...3dsmax wont work with the openGL drivers from.....
Yes :guest additions

So my question is whether there is a way to Not install or remove de video drivers from the guest additions but keep the Shared Folder Functions working.

Hope to hear from someone soon..
