LCD tv and the boot screen won't display correctly

HP a6130n, Vista home prem., nvidia GE Force 8600...I cannot for the life of me get the initial boot screens to come up on my 'ilo' 32" lcd tv. The tv is a cheap walmart generic, but it is connected using the normal monitor 'scsi' cord. I had to plug into a normal crt to get it setup...now all is good, but if I want to run chkdsk or get into the F8 'boot' screens, I get a beautiful green and black screen that flickers and shows the text, but the text is not readable enough to make the correct selections. Is there a way to change the resolution for the default video driver that loads so that I can get to the 'F8' screens? I've googled, searched the HP site, and now I turn to you pros for a resolution. Thanks. Matt
