resized HDD not showing up

Post by pmk »

virtualbox 4.2.12. resized an IDE dynamic virtual drive (C:) from 126 to 400 GB and it shows as that in VB Manager. In the guest OS, 2008R2 it still shows as 126 and there is NO unallocated space. Any ideas?

Thank you.

Did you make sure that you didn't have an active snapshot before resizing?

No. I didn't think that was necessary. I''ll try again and post back.
