sounds like the monitor is not handling the 1048 x 760. try setting to 640 x 480 @ 60Hz just to test then go upwards to 800 x 600 and then 1024 x 768.
Also try another monitor that can handle higher resolutions. some monitors won't handle 1048 x 760 or even some conbinations of 1024 x 768 @ ??Hz.

Hi .. I am a new subscriber.
Have wanted to have a dabble with Linux for some time.
A CD of Xandros, ver 2, came with a computer mag I bought a few months ago.
Trying to install it .. just after some hardware detect routine, it apparently changes video format.
Came up with an ? error message (think really from Philips 150 S4 monitor) to change display setting to 1048 x 760 (or there abouts) at 60 Hz. Did this .. still get this ? error message.
Convinced myself that the monitor is actually displaying the above format.
Any idea how to fix it?
I realize its probably a computer problem rather than actually Xandros related.
Thanks, Ron.
