You most likely need a new xorg.conf file, or you need to update the file to include the right parameters for your monitor. You can get the refresh rates and resolution for your monitor from the manufacturer's web site or manual. Then edit the /etd/xorg.conf file. On some systems, there is an automatic way to try as well. I think it is the command "xorgconf".

What Linux distribution are you using?
What monitor?
What computer?
