What drivers do I need to install on a windows guest OS?

Post by adam10603 »

Hi

I'm running a Windows XP SP3 guest OS inside of virtualbox, and windows 7 x64 ultimate is my real OS (host).

So do I need any drivers for the guest OS? Which ones? The drivers which correspond with my real-life hardware? Or what?

Thanks,
Adam
