Envision monitor "out of range"

I have a widescreen Envision monitor that I've used on my PC for years but I'm not having any luck getting it to work with my new Mac Mini. Envision's website says it needs some drivers and I need to talk to Mac support...

I've tried safe booting several times, but still end up the same: power up the Mac Mini the Apple logo and gear going round look fine, but as soon as it switches to its regular display mode the screen goes black.

The monitor menu's Info screen says: 1440 X 900, 55 kHz, 59 Hz.

Anyone with a solution?

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.5.3), Envision widescreen monitor

The way a Mac gets it's display driver is directly from the display, so the Envision website is not correct if it directs you to Mac support for a display driver.

If you own a second computer, I recommend setting up a VNC connection between the mini and a second computer. You can then see what resolution the mini is sending to the Envision. You can also change that setting from the other computer and hopefully get the mini set to a resolution that will cause the Envision to start working.
