Why would you want to? If windows XP gets booted,
(and it MUST be booted and log'ed into in order
for you to install the addons), then use the Devices
tab and be done with it. Seems to me you are making
yourself unhappy by not following the the info being
given.

Hi JD,
Many thanks for your reply.
Since I am starting the vm from the gnome-terminal with VirtualBoxSL is
it possible to start the installation of addons from the command line as
well?
Many thanks,
Christian

Once you boot windows, login to windows and do nothing more there.
Next
On the top title bar of the guest display, you should see
a tab called Devices
Click on Devices, and near the bottonm , select the addons
This will make vbox prent to windows a dynamically plugged
in (pluf-and-play storage just like a cd or a floppy).
Windows will run the auto-play and will proceed to installation.
I think you will have to click ok or next ...whatever
to let windows install all the drivers needed by it in order
for it to properly interact with the virtual devices of vbox.
Once done, reboot the windows guest, and you should be able
to set your windows graphics settings to as-you-like-it.
Good luck,
JD

Did you install the guest add-on on windows guest
and then reboot?

Hi all,
I am running VirtualBox under Linux and have installed Windows XP as the
guest OS.
However, there seem to be problems with proper video driver under
Windows.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
Many thanks,
Christian
