Open a command line and type:

# system-config-display

and then go to the second tab. There, just chose the proper hardware. Then press "Alt + Ctrl + Bkspc".

It is possible that the HorizSync and VertRefresh values are not set in your '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' file. Just set them. For the "how to do" thing, just Google or search a thread on this site.
