I would suggest that you try adding that line

mks.gl.allowUnsupportedDrivers="TRUE"

to the vmx of this VM.

Just make sure that the VM is shut down (not suspended) BEFORE editing the vmx.

If this 3D acceleration problem is resolved with adding that line, you can then add it to /etc/vmware/config so that you don't have to manually add that configuration line to every existing VM and new VM(s) yet to be created on this host machine.
