11868	run cad application on win8	averlon		"Hi,
I was on the test for a CAD application to run in a win guest on virtualbox on ubuntu host.

Just viewing drawings and only 2D.

I tested CorelCAD on Win7.
It showed up to have some problems to show the drawing. After activating 3D in the guest settings on virtualbox it worked.

Testing the same on a win8 system, it does not even where 3D-accelleration was activated.

The only differerence which was shown to me as a user is that guest additions on win7 do not (not) have Direct3D-Support activated where the win8 guest addions do have it activated.

On win8 there is no option to not (not) select Direct3D-Support on installation of guest additions.

Naturally, the drivers in the background are different between win7 and win8 - I guess.

Please check settings, drivers and guest additions installation routine to enable CAD applications to show the drawing. No 3D turning of a model or so!"	defect	closed	guest additions	VirtualBox 4.2.12	fixed			Windows	Linux
