Hi,

There is problem with changing screen size of WinXP SP3 Guest on VB 5.0.14.
The only possible guest screen resolution is 800/600.

Guest Additions installed successfully, and seems to works. Auto-Resize checkbox is selected, but changing host window size does not affect guest resolution. As well, as selecting "Virtual Screen 1" menu has no effect.

VBox.Log is attached.

ps. This functionality works well on VB 4.3.

Any help please.

Thanks.

Moved to "Windows Guests" is your OS X host is not relevant to the questions asked.

What is the host resolution?

• Increase guest RAM to 1GB.
• Increase guest graphics RAM to 64MB.
• Go to File|Preferences|Display and set the Maximum Guest Screen Size field to Automatic or None (try both).

Setting the Maximum Guest Screen Size field to Automatic resolved issue.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for reporting back.
