thank you for the comment,
external Nvidia GT6800 (1 gb)
mainboard asus P5Q-deluxe (mainboard does not include any integrated Graphic Card)
OS:Win7_x64
and installed in virtualbox latest version.
well...m.
NVDANV40HAL.kext didnt worked me to increase resolution.
maybe because I installed iatkos under virtualbox.
I believe virtualbox does not allow or support for higher resolutions
or iatkos lion 10.7.3 does not know what is virtualbox
anyway
reporting :
I found an information virtualbox only supports 5 resolution modes.
some of,…and 1280 x 1024 and 1400 x 880
so this is a virtualbox limitation and no solution for this problem.

@calloinitially the desktop screen display resolution was 1024 x 768 after changed it to 1680 x 1050 or a higher value ; it only displays 1280 1024 maximum resolution.
You need to be little more specific on what graphic card you use.
Also it sound like it has to do with QE/CI, which means your hackintosh does not have proper setting for Graphic Card.

I suggest you search for NVDANV40Hal.kext
VirtualBox emulates a graphics card. It does not have the guest additions for OS X so you are out of luck.
