Getting Windows 2000 to fill up the screen

I've gotten Windows 2000 to run under Kubuntu 14.04 via VirtualBox. However, the best resolution I've been able to get is 800x600, and, hence, it will not fill up the monitor on my Lenovo Z570. My laptop is way newer than Win 2K. There therefore probably isn't a Win 2K driver for its monitor. What's my best course of action? Should I hunt down Windows XP drivers and see if I can get them to work? In case you're wondering why I would run such an old OS, I need to run an old software development tool, MS Visual BASIC 6. I wrote some software a long time ago and need to check out my code and run it line by line so that I can rewrite it for Linux in C++.

Here's a screenshot of my Win 2K under VirtualBox:
