    Increase Virtual Box HD size?

    I have an XP setup running in VB... Is there any way I can increase the size of the XP virtual drive? I need more space! Thanks. I set it originally to expand when needed.... its not expanding.

    Looks like you need to make a new virtual disk image (vdi) and use a utility to clone the files from the old image to the new larger one. Here's a link about it:

    the link it refers to is in German. Never tried this myself. Would be curious to see how it works for you.

    Found a better link:

    that copies the stuff from the old vdi to the new vdi using the selfimage utility in windows.
