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.
Assuming the problem is the same as with FC6 Follow the following tutorial to get to runlevel 3: http://www.pembo13.com/linux/tutorials/runlevel3/ Then edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to put in the proper resolution. If you need further assistance, let us know.
