Sounds like you just don't have the monitor setup properly. On the initial
boot screen (while counting down) type a 3 and hit enter. This boots you to
runlevel 3 (before X). Then you can use sax to configure your monitor. Be
careful. You should either enter in the dimensions for you monitor (in mm
the actual size of the screen) or choose a generic flat panel (This is what I
do).
