    Try doing this at the prompt

    >linux low-res

    I had the same problem with the monitor that I used, also when its
    detecting for which monitor drivers to install, use the generic driver.
    The problem might not even be ur monitor, but your video card drivers.

    you can do a text-based install (quite ugly but functional) and then
    choose a generic setting for your monitor afterwards.
    to fire up the text installer simply boot from CD one and type
    linux text
    at the boot: prompt
