Description
Only improvement, no defect:
Guest: Windows Vista x64, Host: Mac OS X leopard. After installation of the guest additions, I entered the control panel to choose another screen resolution. However, the maximum screen resolution provided was only 1600x1200, but my host is running with 1920x1200. I read elsewhere that you can use vboxmanage command to add additional resolutions manually and this works for me.
So my improvement proposal is to add this resolution 1920x1200 by default because this resolution is already famous. It takes me multiple hours to figure out how to add this resolution manually.
I guess there wasn't not enough video memory assigned to the guest. Reopen if this is still a problem.
