Change boot resolution or adjust frequency to resolve Out of range issue?

Hello!



I have Windows XP and an old ATI Radeon 9000 video card. I also have this LCD monitor.



They used to work just fine, but from a month or so, when I boot (or even just before the booting starts) I get an ';Out of range'; message from my monitor, and the the V frequency is 49.x Hz but never 50 (I found out that if it's below or 50 it is OK). Also, the monitor reports that the screen resolution is 800 x 600.



I can't see anything else until Windows loads (when frequency is below 60 Hz). Just sometimes it gets below 50 and I can go into BIOS or the Windows boot menu.



My question is how can I force another resolution during booting, in order to increase the frequency.



(P.S.: I already tried starting Windows in VGA mode, starting in safe mode etc. - actually even is safe modes it looks like it is a 800x600 although Windows reports that is 640x480 - the image is stretched down and it is more clear than it would have been in 640x480 as I can tell)



Please help me with this.Change boot resolution or adjust frequency to resolve Out of range issue?
