Can't set good video resolution: Frequency out of range try other resolutions
Im having trouble installing Ubuntu (new to linux distros all my friends pointed me here) first off i tried using wubi in windows all went ok up untill i had restart computer done as i was told click restart (as i have windows also installed gave me boot menu) i input my boot password and select Ubuntu from the menu ok going great so far i get the ubuntu logo fading in and out for bout 30 seconds then my monitor goes click and throws up this error message " 93.0 Khz / 58.5 Khz - Frequency out of range try other resolutions " done some digging around the net found sudo commands to change xorg etc but non of which helps as i havent gotten to install it fully yet downloaded a program for windows HWInfo32 and looked up my monitor details and checked the frequency ranges - Horizontal Frequency: 30 - 86 Khz, Vertical Frequency: 50 - 160 Khz - so the frequency for horizontal (assuming 93.0 khz on error message is horizontal) is set too high so my question is how can i change the frequency during install i read install will give me a list of video modes i can use trouble is monitor is giving out before i even reach that far, any help would be gratefully recieved hope i have provided you with enuff info about as much as i can get.
P.s i also downloaded live cd and burnt that to disk instead of running the install try to run ubuntu live and that also threw up same error message.
