I'm running multiple Windows 7 guests on a Windows 7 Host with VB.
Last weekend I've installed a new guest with Windows 10 to see if that works and if I can make the switch.
The issue I'm running in to is that when I click on the "Home/menu" button the program-menu opens but as soon as I hoover my mouse over the programs the whole screen gets scrambled and I cannot see anything, it looks like artifacts you see when having issues with your video-card playing games.
I tried to search these forums but I was not able to find anything related.
Any help is appreciated.
Windows 7 host with all the updates.
Latest version VB and Guest-addition

That sounds likely. You should look for updates for your host graphics drivers.i2Paq wrote:it looks like artifacts you see when having issues with your video-card playing games.

Very late update but it was due to an incapable (old) video-card.mpack wrote:That sounds likely. You should look for updates for your host graphics drivers.i2Paq wrote:it looks like artifacts you see when having issues with your video-card playing games.
I've replaced the video-card and then the issue was solved.
