Windows guest will not resize

Post by kdraks »

I am a newbie so pardon the easy question. I am running Vista (Business) on VB 1.6.2 on a MacBook Pro on Mac OSx 1.5.2. It works fine but when I grab the window (lower right) to resize it only the outer frame resizes, the actual Windows workspace remains the same size - even if I drag the window to full scree. What do I do?

Check out the users guide for information about GuestAdditions. Basically you need to install the guestadditions before you get access to "advanced" configuration capabilities. Are you running 1.6.0 still? or are you up on 1.6.2?

Yes I am on 1.6.2. I don't see where I get "Guest Additions"? Thanks

Ok, I got it, I was looking in the wrong menu. Works now.

Thanks.
