What monitor is it. I had a monitor that only worked at a certain frequency. When you boot your pc you will get no signal but when it boots into the OS and say you set your refresh rate to 75 you will get signal. For the monitor to work before it boots into the OS you will need to purchase a graphics card that runs at the correct refresh rate of the monitor.

Try... but that will not affect bios.
If I bought a new monitor and it could not show the bios screen, I would seriously consider returning it. Perhaps changing the video card, or finding if there is a bios setup for the video mode the bios uses.
Nobody has mentioned this I think but if this is an LCD monitor, they usually have an auto-adjust feature as part of the setup buttons. Perhaps this would clear things up.
The auto-adjust would let the monitor set itself to the frequency that is being handed to it (if possible).
