You might have already tried this - but to be sure:

- run system-config-display 
- choose 'hardware' -> 'monitor' -> 'config'
- make sure the display is set correctly (perhaps 'Generic CRT Display' -> Monitor 1024x768')
- Now in 'settings' -> 'resolution' choose 1024x768
- save config & restart the x-server
