Windows XP on Ubuntu Linux ( Virtual Box)

Windows XP running on virtual machine. A little laggy because of screen capture program. XP on Vbox booting time is faster than on normal installation (WTF?). And it's more stable as well. (WTF??). IBM Thinkpad R40, 768MB RAM, 16MB graphic.

Is there any way you can make it full screen?

righ ctrl + f

[bIueviper]

Oh i meant without the black around it, like if you had it as an os. Is there any way to do that.

[arienrode]

Install guest addition. After pushing ctrl+f wait for a while (on my laptop it takes a few moments to go fullscreen). You may also need to set xp screen resolution according to youyr screen (1024x768 in my case)

@TheMinecrafterNerd It works great for me. No problems whatsoever, and my graphics card isn't even supported by ATI/AMD anymore. Runs very smoothly.

@supercool97 I tried running flash, and it crashed

[supercool97]

@TheMinecrafterNerd It has flash in both 32-bit AND 64-bit. I'm currently running 64-bit flash on Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit

Very impressive! But why not to create a partition for each OS? What happens if you add a flash disk? Do both OSes access it simultaneously?

polish people are bad ass :)

[TheMinecrafterNerd]

@Drakopulous :l By default it doesn't.

[Drakopulous]

Keep Windows in V box... and feed it crackers like the overgrown retarded child it is.

[Drakopulous]
