after the install.

Which, in case you don't know, means editing your etc/X11/xorg.conf.  
I don't have a reference here, but search for "xorg.conf" manual 
pages.  You need to add a "Monitor" subsection for your monitor, then 
update your "Screen" subsection to know about that monitor.  You set 
your refresh range in the "Screen" section if I recall.  This is a 
fairly common problem I think.
