    Very clear instructions. I was stumped earlier before watching the video. My Guest Virtual CD install was not happening automatically. Right clicking on the mounted folder was a brilliant idea! It beats entering long path name manually! I saw other videos before & nobody cared to mention it.

    Duuude. I almost couldn't believe it when it finally worked. Like every other tutorial i've tried before failed. And that pissed me off even more since i initially tried dual boot with ubuntu and it screwed me up good time. THANK YOU. My pain is gone Edit: my problem wasn't even the screen, it was the bidirectional copy-pasting. This fixes that too.

    I spent a few days watching videos and reading tutorials on trying to get Guest Additions to work in VirftualBox, but to no avail, since auto-run did not work in the newer versions of VirtualBox it seems. But This video was the only one that knew how to deal with the issue I had--It works now! Thank you very much, I will share it with my peers.
