Refresh Rate / Screen Delay

[tortillaman]

I am running a 27" iMac with Virtual Box 4.1.8 r78361 and Windows XP

My issue is that while I am working inside Virtual Box the refresh rate is slow. I am not sure if I am calling it correct.

Here are 2 screenshots to show what I am talking about.

The first one shows how while I am scrolling nothing changes on the screen until I click outside the window I am working on (showed on the second screenshot) then it displays correctly.

Is there a setting I can adjust to correct this.

Thank you

Display refresh rate of the guest is meaningless. The guest has no access to those features of the host display.

I may be calling it the wrong thing.

Is there anything I can do to adjust or fix the lag in display when scrolling?

Maybe installing the Guest Additions would help.
