Hey there,
i'm pretty new to virtualbox because i want to use it to get dungeon keeper 2 working.Well but at first a few facts.
I'm using win 7 home and win xp runs on my VM.I just installed win xp on it with service pack 3 and all updates which has been
available.I use the VM with 768mb ram,1 cpu core,and 64mb graphicsmemory and activated 3d accleration at the options.After this i installed the game but it just starts in a
pretty small window.So i gotta need real display drivers right?I just installed direct x 9.c so far and i have no clue what to do with the graphic card
where do i get drivers for it?I hope someone can help me here

Thx in advance

Install Guest Additions in safe Mode, see user manual.

More than some 3d features are not possible.

Hey there,i did it,but there were some errors current the installation,something with logotest not passed and so on.And the game still starts in like 400 x 300 pixelsize

That are ignorable warnings. the drivers are not signed, but they works.

VMs are not good for gaming. It might work, but almost not.

Well ok.But what do i have to do,to get the game in a higher resolution working?Like i said,its at the moment something like 400x300.800 x 600 would be weclome

Install the guest additions in safe mode, install 3d driver for your vga card on host and in the guest settings enable 3D and give the guest 64 MB VGA RAM or more.

Thats all.

As i said: It may work, mostly not.

VMs are not for gaming.

If it does not work, then it does not work.

I installed the guest additions already.How do i install the 3d drivers for the vga card?Or the did you mean the direct 3d support option current the installation of the gues additions?

The host must have a vga card that is 3d capable.

DirectX or OpenGL must work on the Host, else no chance.
