[4.3.10]-Graphic Problems Win XP/Win 7 Guest?

Hi,

I am running current VirtualBox v.4.3.10 on a fully updated Kubuntu 14.04 64Bit Host(AMD proprietary display driver is installed)
with both Microsoft Windows XP Pro 32Bit SP3 Guest and Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit SP1 Guest.

I installed Windows Guest Guest Additions to both Win XP and Win 7 VirtualBox Guests.
Problem I have now in both Guests is graphic issues when running SDL 1.2 applications.
The SDL 1.2 applications I am running use OpenGL for graphic rendering.
(see screenshot below)

I've used VirtualBox for many years on a Linux Host with a Win XP Guest
and never had any problems before with Win Guest display.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you...

Jesse

Hi,

Downgrading to VirtualBox 4.1.32 (released Mar 14th 2014) fixes the problem above.

But VirtualBox 4.1.32 has a problem with Windows Guest Guest Additions not installing
(a quick Google search reveals a method to install Windows Guest Guest Additions in VirtualBox 4.1.32 for Linux Host)

Anyone else have above issue?
Is there a report in the bug tracker? - it's a regression bug

Thanks!

Jesse
