Win7 Host, Arch Linux Guest, No Full Screen

[w201]

Greetings-

I have virtualbox (ver. 4.3.6) running on a Win7 host. I've been bashing my head in trying to get this thing to go full screen. I've seen multiple threads floating around the web all with the same advice, install guest additions...

The guest OS is arch linux, and I added the guest additions following the instructions for my distribution, which are a little different than the virtualbox installation method of guest additions. I can verify that the guest additions are installed by clicking "Session Information" and it shows that Guest Additions are 4.3.6.

I don't use virtualbox all that much, so any pointers or things I can check for to nail down what the problem is would be awesome!

Thanks

Stick with the official main distribution and guest additions. If that doesn't work, you can ask from help from the virtualbox forum, otherwise I'm afraid you'd have to ask for help from the Arch Linux distribution forum.

Yikes! Okay, I thought about posting the question in the arch forums but figured I'd give it a shot here first. Thanks!
