Santa bought me a Dell 19inch Ultrasharp flat panel monitor. It's lovely. BUT I have a dual boot system and the monitor will not show the boot screen or boot choices. If I press F8 to choose boot options I can't see anything. The screen says 'Cannot display this mode' or something. Any quick ideas. I've got the latest drivers and all. Do I have to have DVi? It's just using AGP at the mo.

It'll be a PITA having to swap displays every time I want to boot into something else or change BIOS. I'm going to upgrade the graphics card anyway to a DVI one.
