Yes, you're right - I am all set in the serial number
department (thanks, google).

In response to your other question, no, I did not run
vmware-wizard immediately.  I actually started up
vmware first thing, and it immediately took me into
the wizard where I set up all of my items.

But I just did it all again with a new guest OS, and
the error message I get is much more verbose the first
time I power it on - here it is:

No DGA mode found compatible with 5760x1200, depth 24,
bpp 32
XFree86 direct graphics (DGA extension) power on
failed.

and after clicking OK, I got the regular error
message:

Failed to initialize SVGA device.

On subsequent power-ons of this VM, only the second
error message appears.  Does this help at all ?
