Question Regarding Screen Resolution and Width
Question Regarding Screen Resolution and Width
I just downloaded the lastest version virtualbox on my new Mac Mini. I am running windows 7 on virtual box and everything has been going smoothly so far. I have been able to download and start Autocad, the main reason for downloading virtualbox. However, the screen width is bothersome. Is there anyway to download a screen resolution that will change the virtual box screen to wide screen?

Install the Guest Additions in the guest. Then drag the VM window to whatever size you want.

What the menu does is mererly mouting the ISO into the CD/DVD drive of your VM.
Navigate to it in the guest and start the installation exec/script.
