set proper resolution of your linux. and also install vmware-tools.

I check the screen resolution but the maximum resolution is only 800x600 and my real screen resolution (not in vmware) is 1366x768

In vmware menu select full screen mode (in think its in window menu) and after 20'' it will get in full screen mode. I had the same prob!

open display settings

Code:

system-config-display

goto Hardware -> select configure on monitor type -> select your monitor resolution type (i.e Monitor 1024 x 800)

reboot your machine and check it works or not.

hope this help.
