    For some reason when I open the window for XP (Non-fullscreen) in Mac it is gargantuan (Basically it's fullscreen in a window). It used to be a small little window until I clicked, "Fullscreen". Now it's just huge all the time. Anyone know how to get that back? I have rebooted both OS's countless times and it's still the same.

    Thanks.

    Nevermind. I figured it out. I changed the resolution in the window of Windows to 800x600. When I go Fullscreen it flips back to 1920x1200.

    I liked it better when it always defaulted to that little size... it seems with this new beta, with the new window resizing functionality they "remember" your previous res.

    If you shut down in full screen, next time you start it, it will be windowed by default, at the fullscreen res, making it larger then the available real estate on the OS X desktop.

    I don't especially care for that behaviour.. there should be some sort of configuration option to set the window to some default size when starting the VM in non-full screen mode.
