setting windows 7 screen definition on iMac

I cannot properly set screen definition on my iMac when using windows 7 within virtualbox.
The available options are few and there is not the one I need.
So I see a narrow screen on my wide iMac desktop.

Amy idea?

Thanks.
Windows 7 on virtualbox ver. 3.1.2
iMac OS 10.6.2

I found the easiest solution: installed guest additions, manually resized windows with mouse and then clicked on "resize guest window".
It works!

thanks.

Install guest additions. Look into the manual how to setup custom resolutions.

I already installed guest addition, indeed now I can use audio within Windows 7.

I found this: "For guest operating systems with VirtualBox Guest Additions, a custom video mode can be set using the video mode hint feature."

But I cannot understand what "video mode hint feature" is and how I could use it


Many thanks!
