"display setting not supported" 6200 turbo and LCD

Hi all,
My friend has bought a new PC and is trying to run "Stronghold 2".
When he starts the game the monitor goes black and gives the message
"display setting not supported h 42hz v 85.1hz" or something like that.
It seems the game is trying to use a refresh rate outside the monitors
range, but 85hz does not seem that high!
I suggested he tries to alter the refresh rate in his display properties but
I can not see a way to do this with the 71.98 drivers.
Also his monitor shows a just default monitor in the device manager, with no
detail or the fact its a LCD so the "hide settings monitor does not support"
does nothing.
I think the PC and monitor are fujitsu

Any suggestions as to how to solve this problem?
Sorry I do not have too many details but it is not my PC.

Thanks
Jo

Set it to 60hz. LCD's only work at 60. They don't use refresh the same way
CRT's do.no flickering.

My Samsung 19" LCD runs at 75hz. Only setting it has.
