ohh that

You do realise that you "virtual" guest is going to use a "virtual" display driver, right? It would be vbox video not the hosts adapter.
As long as the guest additions were installed (in the guest) and wddm was selected it should work properly.

The Guest Editions where not installed because i had no "DVD" installed so the install of the guest wend wrong..
But now i have added a DVD and the Guest Additions are installed... works perfect

Thank and hands up for Oracle..!!
