  1. Windows 10 install using VirtualBox


    Mac user needing Windows for gaming. Installed Windows 10 using VirtualBox but once installed, the screen size was half the size of my MacBook Pro. I've gone into Display and adjusted the resolution which has made the screen readable it was tiny before but no luck. Can anyone advise how to make Windows fit the screen?

    :)

It was on that screen for more then 30mins and so i force a shutdown on the original Win7 OS to et rid of the VirtualBox OS shutdown screen. Rebooted and tested VirtualBox with the game and got the same error message as shown in my first post.

    EDIT: Gone through all the steps till i came to rebooting the VirtualBox OS. After the system coming up normally, i checked if the 3D acceleration is enabled by running dxdiag. Here is what i get...
