NT4 change of screen resolution problem

Post by dommy »

Hi all, first post.

Currently running Ubuntu 10.04 32bit as host (amd 64 box) and trying to configure extra screen resolution for a Windows NT4 client .
The client has 1.3Gb memory and 512Mb video memory I have installed service pack 6a and run VBox Additions .
But I can not get the resolution past default of 640x480 .
Any attempt to increase resolution results in an error message saying something like "your hardware is not capable".

I've tried googling this problem but I don't see any NT4 clients mentioned, so I finally come to the source and ask the "how do I do this " question here.
