Okay, I've done this.

My apologies for that confusion. I thought there was a chance the 
resolution was 800x600, so I set it to 640x480 at one point, because 
there's no mistaking that size.

I've done all this, and it is still the same. Is there some way to do it 
directly from the grub command-line?

Does the grub.cfg look as it should? That is the latest version with the 
changes I've done above.

Thanks,
Alex
