Win 7 on Ubuntu 12.04 Video card drivers

I am running win 7 (guest) inside Ubuntu with VirtualBox. Win 7 sees the graphics card as "standard VGA graphics adapter" is that normal? I have Nvidia GTX 260 video car FWIW
Thanks,
Brad

That's what your host has. Your
virtual PC has something else.

Thanks that worked. Although durring install, it asked about 3D and then said it couldn't install it beacuse Win 7 wasn't in safe mode. I booted into safe mode and clicked install guest addons again but nothing happens. Aero isn't working which I am guessing is because of this.
