Monitor Not Optimum Mode/Screen Black/Can't Get Back

After just installing Fedora 7 on a new drive I was setting the screen
resolution to 1600 x 1200.  The screen went black with a gray box voting
around that reads: 

 

Not Optimum Mode

Recommended Mode: 1600 x 1200

 

I'm sure this is because I didn't install the driver for this monitor but I
don't know how to get to a lower resolution.  I tried searching the Fedora 7
installation forum archives but I don't have permission.
