I'm trying to run windows 7 on virtual pc. My host OS is windows XP. The vm is running fine but i could not set screen resolution in windows 7 to equal to host OS.

My windows XP is running on 1366*768 but My windows 7 in virtual pc can only set to 1152*768 as a maximum resolution.

I'd like to know how to config virtual-pc to display the same resolution as host OS.

Please help.

Thank you.

You need to install "Integration features" into Virtual OS (virtual pc window top: tools-> Enable Integration Features).

Coordinate full-screen video resolution with the host operating system.

To coordinate full-screen video resolution with the host operating system

Open Virtual PC Console.

On the File menu, click Options.

Click Full-Screen Mode, and then select or clear the Adjust screen resolution so the host operating system is the same as the guest operating system check box.

Refer VPC Help for more details.

  • I've tried that folling VPC help but it does not work at all. It seems VGA card in windows 7 is standard VGA graphic adapter which allow me to set the maximum resolution to 1152*768. – tong Mar 18 '11 at 18:31
