There is no resolution setting OUTSIDE of your Windows "disk". However,
I suspect if you enable "stdvga" instead of the Cirrus Logic graphics
model, it will make your Windows load a different driver, which means
that it will also reset the resolution (it may now be TOO small, but
that's most likely easier to manage).
Of course, you can also log-in "blind" and just change the resolution -
not very difficult if you use keyboard commands only and you have a
second machine that you can "replicate from" (that is, use the first
machine to figure out what the steps are, and do exactly the same steps
on the second). When I was working at a graphics card company as a
driver writer, I used to change resolution "blind" every now and again
(after half a dozen times or so, you don't even need a second machine to
"replicate" from), when the driver had "got itself in a twist" - much
faster to change resolution than to reboot in VGA mode!

It may be that your vncviewer is using F8 for something else??
