Host: Windows 7
Guest: Windows 7
I've expanded the window that my Guest is operating in but the observable image for the OS is small; ie it's not taking up as much of my display area that I'd like. How can I expand the Guest's display area to take up most of my display area?
Thank you.

Install the Guest Additions in the guest, then use "Auto-resize Guest Display" in the guest's Virtualbox window's View menu. (Or Fullscreen)
