virtualbox.org

I am attempting as a Windows Guest to run a game. When I attempt to run it, it fails as Direct3D acceleration is not available. I have been scanning thru the forums and virtual box user guide and I have seen it brought up a few times, but nothing I could really compile together to help me from start to finish. I believe there is something about installing a guest additions? Would someone mind walking me thru the whole process? I already have 3D acceleration enabled and I know for sure I am running the 64x architecture. So in theory it should work, but I have no idea where to go from here.

Read section 4 of the manual headed "Guest Additions"

I am following the tutorial so far. I am in safe mode right now, but when I hit "Install Guest Additions...", nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? I go into the storage settings and the guestaddtions is already mounted so I should not have any problem there... shouldnʻt I?

The VirtualBox "Install Guest Additions" mounts the CD. If the install does no autorun, run the install manually from within the Windows guest.
