It seems like VB does not detect NVidia card and tries to use Intel HD 4000. Intel driver: 10.18.10.3379

On the other hand, if I don't install WDDM driver then I see 800x600 and 1024x768 resolutions only. If I completely remove Guest Additions, I see resolutions up to 1920x1200.

Found solution, I've updated NVidia driver to 332.21 and forced VirtualBox to use only NVidia 3D. This was I can see the correct desktop, but can't use resolutions above 1024x768, neither setvideomodehint, nor CustomVideoMode1 helps me to add more resolutions.

Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
