Seamless window function not working

Post by moeen »

Hi!
I'm new to VB. My host is WinVista. VB v2.2.4. Guest Win7 RC. The seamless window function under machine tab is not working (option in dropdown menu from 'machine' greyed out. How do I fix it?

Thanks! Installing guest additions (v2.2.4.iso) solved the problem. Sorry I missed the line in parenthesis in the documentation.
