Increase VirtualBox VDI Size

 

 

The time will come when there’s a need to increase the Virtual disk size. These are the steps (to increase existing size of 10GB to 20GB):

 

STEPS

1.       Close the VM VirtualBox Manager.

2.       On command prompt, go to the VirtualBox directory & issue command  VBoxManage modifyhd “d:\vm\xp.vdi” --resize 20480



Notes :
d:\vm\xp.vdi is the  location of the vdi file. The location can also be found under SETTINGS – STORAGE.




20480 is the size in MB.  In the case above, 20GB x 1024MB = 20480MB


The progress will be shown. Resize is completed at 100%

3.       Start VirtualBox Manager. The VDI size is now at 20GB.

4.       Boot up the virtual machine.

5.       Final step is to Increase the partition size. My favorite is EaseUS Partition Master Free Edition.  It’s simple & easy to us. Best of all, it’s free.

Reason 442: Failed to Enable Virtual Adapter - Windows 7 64 bit

For an unknown reason, Cisco VPN client just refused to connect after I make Windows 7 as WiFi Hotspot. Getting error Reason 442: Failed to enable Virtual Adapter.

 

 

Apparently, Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service was causing the error. The workaround is to STOP Windows ICS service & bravo, Cisco VPN Client works like charm!
