Change Matrox G200ew resolution settings via RDP

I have a Dell server that is running Windows Server 2003 that is not physically located near me.  I can access the computer via RDP without any issue.  However, I can not access the server via my IP KVM, which is used as a back-up.  At this point in troubleshooting, I am pretty sure that the default resolution of the G200ew is too high for the KVM.  I want to change it to something like 800x600.  

Of course, when using RDP, I am using a virtual video driver, and do not have access to the settings of the physical video card.  I have been looking at the registry settings, but I can't make sense of them. i.e they don't have obvious binary values that translate to video resolutions.     

How can I adjust the default video settings of the G200ew via RDP?  Or, at least see what the default resolution is?

The only way you can change the resolution is either by using a DRAC\iDRAC  or by being directly on the console.
