XFree cannot start. When I select the option to start the program to
make adjustments, the monitor flashes from black to a small window with
the monitor's settings and the message "out of range".

Sounds like you got too high values for "HorizSync" and/or
"VertRefresh" in your xconfig file (/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 or
/etc/X11/XF86Config). You can try to run (from console) "XFree86
--configure" and see if it works, or you can adjust the settings your
self. Check the manual for your monitor, the ranges it's usually
specified. If it isn't (and configure above doesn't work) you can try
with:

HorizSync 30-50
VertRefresh 50-70

which I _think_ should work for most monitors, although it may be far
from optimal.

Good luck,
Emil
