Note: Original message sent as attachment I would agree with ... installing the correct "guestadditions" version to your Vbox guest OS. -the vbox version and the vboxguestadditions versions must match- -you can uninstall the guestadditions if there are errors, and reinstall- The guest additions, after you run/install it (the guestadditions-iso), ...have ... built in ... system corrections for the guestOS that you have installed. The "view" used to "fill the screen" is - full screen. This setting (if/after you have the guestadditions installed) auto-magically fills the host screen,... with the guestOS. My "host screen" screen is 13668x768, (when swiching to full-screen-view) my vbox guestOS uses this resolution. best of luck, Sammie
