Since Windows Server 2008 Server Core doesn't have access to display properties, you must change the screen resolution using the registry. Here's how:
- Log into Server Core with an admin account
- Run Regedit from the command prompt and modify the following reg keys:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video
- There, you will find one or more GUIDs. Expand each one to find the one with a VolatileSettings subkey under the 0000 subkey (usually the first GUID)
- Double-click the 0000 key and modify the DefaultSettings.XResolution and DefaultSettings.YResolution values to set your resolution
- Close Regedit
- Logoff and log back on to receive the new resolution settings
