After installing, I keep getting message "out of frequency range"

[Dashgr]

Hello, I have two monitors and none of them work on boot up. I've never seen the GUI or text mode of Fedora Core 6 because my main monitor (DCLCD 19") hasnt worked even during the installation but monitor #2 Dell E773c worked during installation. It works in grub and it goes all the way until it tries and boot.

I have nvidia eVGA Geforce 7600GT video card. How do i fix this? Or how do I change refresh rates from "grub".

I am very new to fedora but i understand a little about the "terminal".

Hay, just wanted to say you aren't the only one.

It says the same thing with me, and I have a ATI X1300 and A Westinghouse LCD Monitor running at 1280x1024.

However, You may want to read this thread linked below and that may help you solve your problem.

Yeah - I had this too, but it wasn't the Modes it was the HorizSync and VertRefresh parameters in /etc/xorg.conf

Section "Monitor"
### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC:
Identifier "Monitor0"
ModelName "LCD Panel 1400x1050"
HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0
VertRefresh 59.0 - 75.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection


If you've never seen the GUI I'd suggest the following. Attach the monitor you want to eventually use. Boot the system, stop at the grub ticker(any key), and edit the kernel line ("e" key) add the string "single" to the end of the line and hit return to boot. This *should* boot FC6 i ntext mode and give you a shell prompt "#" as root.

At the text window type the command
Xorg -configure
This *should* create a basic X configuration for your current hardware. It appears in the file
/etc/X11/xorg.conf. Then you can either reboot or use the command "init 5" to try to bring up the GUI with the new config.

If that doesn't work you could also edit the xorg.conf file by booting the FC6 DVD i nrescue mode.

Hay stevea thanks for the assistance. Had trouble with it the second time, but this worked even better,

boot up using the FC6 DVD disc and go into rescue mode
answer the question, yes and continue
inside the terminal,
type in 'cd /mnt/sysimage/'
type in 'cd etc/X11/'
type in 'vi xorg.conf' and press "i" for insert mode
find the subsection: Display and the line Depth 24
Under this line type in 'Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768"' {NOTE= Here you put the desired resolution you want}
press "Esc" and then type in ':wq'
Now type in 'cd /'
Now type in 'exit'
