Hi, Newbie here!

I have installed Windows 11 on Proxmox 8.2.2 and the SPICE viewer. Windows runs fine and I can connect to it using SPICE, but I am unable to change the screen resolution - it's stuck on 1280x800. Do I need to install a graphics driver? If so, which one and where do I find it?

Thanks in advance

Did you install all the SPICE drivers and agents in the Windows guest? If everything is working as expected, the resolution should adapt to the window size of the spice client.

If you use a very large screen, and therefore large resolution, you might need to increase the memory of the display device of the VM. For example to 32M.

Thanks, Aaron. That was he missing step!
