Sounds like a video card driver issue,and not a monitor issue, so here's what you want to try:

1. Reinstall the video driver & Reboot
2. If it doesn't correct itself, adjust it to the highest resolution it will let you pick, then reboot again.
3. After the second reboot, it should give you all your options back. In some cases, I've seen a need with some video drivers to need to get out of the default 640x480x16c mode before they will let you get any fancier than that. An easy way to tell(in most cases) if you have one of these drivers is if after getting out of 640x480x16c, it asks you to reboot for the changes to take effect...
