Again, the hardware the software installation inside VMWare sees doesn't
have anything to do with the hardware actually in your computer.
The video card inside the vmware machine will probably be something
like, "VMWare virtual video card". It won't use your video card
directly. There should be a package within VMware that you can install
that has a better video driver, but it'll still be a VMWare video driver.
