Stuart,
	You can cycle through the configured screen resolutions by typing:
Ctrl-Alt-(+)  or Ctrl-Alt-(-). Use the plus and minus keys on the right
side of the keyboard.

If no other screen resolutions are configured, you must add them in.

The easiest program for you to use at this point would be :
XF86Setup .

If it is not in your path, you can find it at : /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86Setup
or /usr/bin/X11/XF86Setup . You will need to run it as root. If you want
to protect the existing X settings that you have, make a backup copy of
:
/X11/XF86Config before running the program. You can restore the original
if something goes wrong.

XF86Setup program has a series of tabs at the top to configure various
parts related to X. ( Mouse, Card , Monitor, Modeselection etc.) Choose
Modeselection and click on each of the screen resolutions that you would
like to be able to use.

I will let someone else help you with the sound card, have you tried :
/usr/sbin/sndconfig ??
