Hi, I have the same problem with the resolution thing not working properley. Like you, I use VMWare and get the same resoution check boxes come up, but when I install to a real hard disk I don't get the problem. I think it's something to do with VMWare. I'm still getting the Protect My PC and Users pages displaying. but apparently you can't stop the PMP screen due to some 'Freedom of Choice' law. Enough of my babble. Good Luck.
