View Full Version : [ubuntu] Virtualbox and games for Windows: window of Virtualbox gets smaller

The screen resolution of my monitor is 1280x1080px.

When I run a Windows XP (virtual) inside Virtualbox I can run Windows with the same resolution (my virtualbox has "guest additions" installed) of my Linyx (host).

But, when I execute a game (like Simcity 2000 or Starcraft 1) the virtual monitor resolution decreases and the window of Virtualbox gets smaller.

I'd like to run a game and the windows size doesn't have to change.

So, how to (and what to) do to fix this?

Thank you!
