virtualbox.org

Hello,

I'm running Windows 8 using Virtualbox 4.2.18 (r88780). I'm only able to choose 4:3 resolutions, so I'd like to add some custom reso's.
I found a solution here: qwerty.meadow.se/wordpress/running-windows-8-with-wide-screen-display-in-virtualbox/
(please replace 'qwerty' through 'www' --> You must be a member for 1 days and have 1 posts before you can post urls.)

The problem now is that when I replace "Windows 8 test" through "Windows 8" (which should be the name of my VM), I get this message:
VBoxManage.exe: error: Could not find a registered machine named '"Windows 8'

Could anyone help me on this?

Thanks in advance!

You didn't use double quotes. You used a single quote. Multiple times . Don't Copy-Paste the webpage directly because it uses smart quotes (“ ”) instead of the appropriate double quotes (" ")
