WinXP Pro guest can't access devices menu

Post by Moorty »

I can't get to the devices menu with the mouse. I tried clicking the right ctrl button with or without c and that doesn't seem to help.

When this happens, is your mouse locked into the guest window, and you can't get it out of the guest at all until you shut down the guest?

In reinstalled Windows XPPro with screen maximized. That has taken care of the problem. Thank you.
