Enabling Aero and 3D acceleration in VirtualBox

With VirtualBox, you can create virtual machines and emulate one or more computers directly under Windows. If you installed Windows 7 or Windows 8 in a virtual machine, you probably noticed that the Aero interface and 3D effects were disabled.

If your computer has enough performance (quad core processor, 4GB memory, advanced graphics card, ...), you can configure VirtualBox and install graphics drivers to enable Aero and enjoy its visual effects and transparency. You will also be able to play in 3D games of little greedy directly in your virtual machine.
