I wouldn't update just yet. That card and monitor should DEFINITELY work. I mean you were at least able to use the graphical setup right? If you have nothing to lose and are feeling adventurous run XF86Config (console fun) or xf86cfg (X graphical) or XF86Setup (ncurses grpahical- may not exist anymore). If all else fails edit your XF86Config file and try generic settings like the VGA driver for "cards" and 640x480 @ (some refresh rate lower than what is in your manual) for "Screens". It might help if you could post your XF86Config file. HTH
