    it is sad, but something could have gone wrong with the installation, who knows. Just a possibility. Also, did running from the disk (to get it to install) bring up the GUI? (the full desktop gui, not just a scaled down install)

The problem was with easy installation of VMware. I built a new Virtual machine (without allowing VMware to install the OS on it's own) and installed the OS manually. After that adjusted the resolution.

Now there is no display issue.
