Hi Aaron

I had the Exact same problem with a Formac Display, the problem resides in
that the mac hardware is trying to think for you. Untick the box that says 

Show modes recommended by display

This will ungray all the other display modes and let you select 1024x768 as
you know the monitor will run at that resolution. 

Hope this helps

Sean Lewis

This is a strange one. I have an xserve running OS X Server 10.2.6. I need
to access the workgroup manager, but I can't because I can't switch the
monitor to 1024 x 768. If I plug this same monitor into an OS 9 machine, I
can put it into 1024 x 768 at a 100Mz refresh rate. If I plug it into the
xserve it only supports 800 x 600 at 56Mz or 60Mhz refresh rate. I can see
all the other resolutions, but they are all grayed out. I have admin access.
I already tried swapping monitors, same deal. The pram batter is good. Any
ideas.

Aaron
