Is it possible with VirtualBox to use the graphical driver of my PC like NVIDIA Quadro 2000 ?

Thank 's

I'm afraid not. Virtual Machines don't use real hardware, especially hardware that your host is already using.

Read the user manual about installing Guest Additions, and also "3D acceleration". Windows guests can also use 2D acceleration (basically: video overlays).
