I am trying to get a windows guest on CentOS 7.9 to have more than 800x600
display.

I started the Windows client, I downloaded Virtio 0.1.196.iso, went to the
Device Manager, Display, right clicked - updated the driver - installed the
qxldod driver,
Rebooted.

The Device Manager shows RedHat QXL Controller but I still only get 800x600
ghosted on Display Settings.

Properties - shows "Windows has stopped this device as it reported a
problem (Code 43)".

What do I do with that ?  This is the same error I had with I first tried
VirtIO 0.1.185.iso

Thanks,

Jerry
