I had that problem, briefly. First thing to do is: When in XP, 
right-click [or Ctl-Click] somewhere on the Windows desktop to get 
your 'Properties'. In properties, select 'Settings', and you'll see 
the button for resolution, screen size, etc...

Set it for the max, and reboot. When I did this, even though the 
properties only showed 1024 X 768 as the 'max', on reboot it was the 
same as my resolution on the LCD. As a matter of fact, because I had 
it all set up to open in 'Window' rather than full-screen, I could 
leave the window on my second [actual 'main' monitor] and when 
hitting 'Full Screen" it took up the full screen on the 22" monitor 
instead.

I assume you see a black-banded border around your XP screen, while 
in "Full Screen" mode, yes? The 'additions' are internalized in 
either WinXP or VPC6, not sure which. But, I had a copy of the 
'Additions', which I assumed i would have to load from within the 
same folder that my Windows images are in. Not so. After a restart or 
two, my copy automatically detected the absence of the 'additions', 
asked if I wanted to 'run' them, I said "OK", and that was that.
