Are you saying that when pressing F11, the installer just goes back to the same screen?

Your hardware might not be compliant with ESXi 5.0. I would try a later version such as 6.0 or 6.5 and if that doesn't work, post back and we can look into this in a bit more detail.

As a quick test, assign some more RAM to the ESXi VM - e.g. 3GB - to see whether this helps.
