Resolution too small on Ubuntu to use ATI driver installation wizard

I just installed Ubuntu on a new virtual machine, and have my resolution restricted to 800x600. I have downloaded the ATI driver installer and can execute it, however, the windows that it displays are too tall to fit my resolution. It doesn't appear to support key strokes to advance the wizard.

"You should not use the drivers for your physical video card in a virtual machine. You should install the drivers for the virtual video card. These drivers often come in a ""Virtual Machine Tools"" package supplied by the virtual machine vendor.

What virtual machine software are you using?"
