I just downloaded VirtualBox and currently have Windows 7 running on it. I only allowed for 20 gb for the hard disk. I have that almost full(19.5gb). Is there a way to expand that size or do I need to create a new Virtual Machine?
Thanks for the help.

I updated that for you. As for the version of virtualbox, i'm not so sure about that. I just chose one because I couldn't find that information.

Re: Expanding Hard Disk Size
Version is PUEL, you grabbed it from the website here. Running the OSE version from the Fedora repo would be a miracle on your Mac OS X
