Two ubuntus, one doesn't display

My CRT monitor recently went kapoot so I replaced it with a flat panel
LCD version.

Previously, both UBUNTUs,(6.06 and 6.10) that I have installed displayed
properly but now with the LCD monitor, the 6.10 version produces a
notice "out of frequency" on the screen and nothing else. There doesn't
seem to be any way to bring up a normal display to adjust its settings.
The monitor adjustment screen also is not accessible. I also have a
bootable UBUNTU DVD that does display properly and I can access the two
other UBUNTUs.

I suspect that the version that shows that notice has screen settings
set to some frequency that's not acceptable by the LCD monitor.

However, if I press Ctrl, Alt and F1, the screen does display a command
request in terminal mode. I suspect that if I could enter the proper
commands, I could change the screen settings to something that would be
acceptable to the monitor.

Short of simply removing the UBUNTU that doesn't display, what can I do
to restore it?
