Cool. There's no need to upgrade. 3.3.6 supports your video card.

Great. Try this:
1. Run Xconfigurator or XF86Setup to configure X. Define LCD as your
monitor type (1024x768, or however big of a resolution your monitor
and the video card can support).
2. Edit the file "/etc/X11/XF86Config". Find the line "VertRefresh NN-NN"
and change it to read "VertRefresh 59-61"
Reboot. Try Ctrl-Alt-Num+ (Num+ is the "plus" key on the number pad) or
Ctrl-Alt-Num- to try different resolutions.
Let us know whether this works or not. If not, let us know what the
symptoms are.
