Re: "Aborted" When Switching To Fullscreen
Windows 10 developer preview only has basic support in VirtualBox. Some things just don't work as they should. I would try a guest that is supported and see if it does go in and out of full screen peoperly. You will also need to install the guest additions ( in the guest ) for full screen to actually work and in Windows 10 you should enable the 3D acceleration in the guest settings.

The 3D acceleration is on
Even After Installing The Guest Additions, it still keeps aborting
It Also Aborts in OSes that ARE supported

Then we need to see a log file of one that is supported and aborts.

Re: "Aborted" When Switching To Fullscreen
I notice that the VRAM allocation is quite small - 18MB. So how big is the fullscreen display?
I also note that it's an XP-64bit VM, which is quite unusual. And I see no sign that the GAs are installed.

Re: "Aborted" When Switching To Fullscreen
12 MB should be enough for full screen.
But this is disturbing to say the least. https://www.google.com/search?q=Windows ... gws_rd=ssl
Searching for the install revealed a nasty issue that I do not condone and will not support.
