Screen Size ?

Post by dwr50 »

I installed Win98se in Vbox 1.6 OSE and it ran fine except the screen size is about 7inX7in is this normal ?
I could find no way of making the screen larger.

The reason I asked is because the problem supposedly was fixed already "VBoxSDL: ?xed automatic adaption of the guest screen resolution to the size of the VM window " according to the 1.5.6 changelog. Perhaps I'm confused, it won't be the first time. lol I will try your suggestions, thankx.
