Lots of options.

a) Do you really need that splash screen?  If not, edit
/boot/grub/menu.lst and remove it from the kernel line. Or uninstall
rhgb altogether.

b) Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and append a term such as "vga=795" to the
kernel line. [ Note: You will need to do a little experimenting to
find a mode that will fit your particular hardware. For a list of vga
values go to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/lilo-vga-modes-152575/
