Problem with my monitor when booting knoppix?

[Loper]

I Just downloaded knoppix and burned with nero. It boots into the cd and finishes loading drivers for my Hardware and when it goes to the next screen the monitor acts like the refresh rate is too high and it shuts off... what would cause this and how can I fix it?

Which video adapter (graphics card) do you have? Which monitor? have you tried the [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[keypad +] on-the-fly resolution-switch function after boot?
Also:

In addition to the above suggestions you could try the noddc cheat code to stop auto-detection of the monitor -- some monitors have a problem with that which causes them to blank (out) and that may be happening here.

I missed this message earlier, or I would have responded then...
