When installing Windows 2008R2 (and Windows7) on Vmware ESX, you will end up with non-accelerated graphics, even with acceleration set to full in the graphics setup. To sort this out you need the new WDDM driver included with Vmware tools, but not automatically installed. Those new drivers are in the following directory.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMware\Drivers\wddm_video
Add them to your standard graphics card through device manager and restart your computer, all is well. This info can be found at Vmwares KB1011709.
