Re: VirtualBox: Can't start VM

[Kari Eveli lexitec@xxxxxxxx]

Carl,

You can switch the VM to full screen and back to windowed mode with Host
key + F. Then you set the W2K video from the Desktop context menu,
settings. If you set a smaller display than the underlying host, it will
show black borders, so you must change the host's resolution to make it
bigger. Or you can experiment with Scaled mode (Host + C) to have a
scalable graphics display (by maximizing it you get something that
resembles a full screen). Personally, I think you can achieve better
results by running Xy in a DOS window under W2K and changing font size.
But by all means do experiment...

virtual Win 7 desktop from whatever it was down to 800x600.
