Fedora Screen Resolution Won't Go Above 720x400

[Daniel Blakemore <DanBlakemore@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am new to fedora and to linux in general.  I know a little bit of bash because I have a mac but not enough.  
I just installed fedora core 10 i386 netinstall (the dvd-rom drive on this computer is thoroughly dead: stops reading and needs to be unplugged and plugged back in every thirty of so seconds), on an AMD with 1GB of RAM and a GeForce 5200 FX.
When I try to change the resolution, the drop-down only goes to 720x400. 
I tried installing the nvidia driver and it broke X beyond what my linux friend can fix.  I did a fresh install and now I have the same problem. 
Please help.

Thanks a bunch,
