24bit 32 Bit message Video

Post by Gorden »

Host Fedora 15 64 Bit
Virtualbox Version 4.1
Installed from Repo on Fedora
Guest Windows 7 32 bit.
Guest additions installed

Each time the guest is run a message is presented to say the video is in 24 bit mode and it should be changed to 32 bit mode.
Looking at the screen properties in Windows 7 and it is reporting it is in the 32 bit mode.

Apart for just ignoring the message how is this problem corrected?

If you have installed the guest additions (inside the guest) you can dismiss the warning.
