Windows XP Screen Resolution And Performance Issue

[FurqanHanif]

Never mind, I see it now. The guest additions are there, but behaving oddly...

Where did this copy of XP come from?

I would also recommend the following steps:

1. Scrap the current VM and create a new one with a RAM size 512MB and a hard disk size of 32GB (10GB is too small for XP - it will lead to disk congestion and poor performance). Make sure to use dynamic VDI. Never used fixed. Defriend anyone that tells you otherwise.
2. Do enable 2D acceleration, do not enable 3D acceleration.
3. VRAM of 32MB seems ok.

You can force a larger display size by grabbing the bottom right corner of the window with your mouse, and dragging. However your VM resolution can't be dragged higher than your host. What is your host resolution btw?

Not Fixed , Still Same Issue .. (See The attached Log).

I don't see anything wrong in the log now. Please be aware that new XP installations can seem to run very slowly because of Windows Update running in the background. A look at the guest tasklist should show any processes which are consuming excessive CPU or I/O.

As I mentioned previously, if nothing larger than 800x600 display size is offered, then try dragging the window to a larger size.

Windows Update is Disabled (and also i 'm Not Connected to Internet in VB), Only 2-3 % CPU consumed and around 200MB RAM is used..
i Switch To Scale Mode and maximize the Window and Desktop Looks Too Blurry and Unresponsive...
So no Solution of this Guest Addition Issue...

@iosip: Thanks for trying to help, but it may be best not to discuss beta version features outside of the beta forum. Telling non-beta users about features that don't exist in their version.... could be very confusing for them.

Sorry! These settings are valid for newly created machines when using the VirtualBox Graphics video adapter from VirtualBox - for example version 4.3.12.
if the VirtualBox Graphics adapter is disable you can select an available resolution.
