It works, no matter how many monitors. Did you run VBoxManage modifyvm <uuid|name> --vram 256 You'll have to replace <uuid|name> by the actual name or ID of your machine. You can get either (if you can't figure it out) by running VBoxManage list vms (VBoxManage is a command-line program in the Vbox program set.) -- You'd be crazy to e-mail me with the crazy.
