Setting Primary Monitor Unavailable
Posted: 21. Aug 2012, 23:05
Using VirtualBox version 4.1.18 r78361
On host machine Dell Precision M6500 laptop, with external monitor connected
Virtual machine that I use for my development env is XP Pro.
During set up I was able to specify that the external monitor be set as the primary monitor in my dev env. This worked perfectly for almost a year.
Had to work from home using just the laptop. Ever since, the laptop monitor is the Primary not the external. All options to change this are greyed out in the Display settings on the virtual machine.
It worked before? how do I get it back to how it was before? Is there anything I could have done to avoid this from happening?
