Hallo,

I have a Linux Mint system (version 17 LTS, 64 bit) and as Guest Windows 7 ultimate (32 bit). I want to update to Windows 10, but GWX.exe says, that the graphic adapter doesn't work with Windows 10.
The Graphic Adapter is "VirtualBox Graphic Adapter".
Other people have "VirtualBox Graphic Adapter for Windows 8" and there the Update work. How can I change the graphic adapter?

That is a "Windows Guests" question, and in fact the question has already been asked several times in that forum.

Practically all recent posts in "Windows Guests" are people asking Win10 questions. Usually the same questions, over and over. On the graphics card issue, here is a useful post. In fact I made a sticky some time back so people would find it more easily.
