Check the settings for monitor. You probably have your monitor set to

that both your graphics card *and* monitor support. If you are using
Gnome, try selecting "System Settings -> Display" from GNOME menues,
than click on "Hardware" tab (I guess this is the same GUI you already
used). If your monitor is not listed, just select one from the "Generic
CRT" or "Generic LCD" lists (in your case 1280x1024 one, I guess).
No: if I go to 256 colors it will go higher, but not at 'thousands of
colors'.
You may need to set the correct VideoRam option
in your xorg.conf. See "man xorg.conf". I've had to do
this since the install detects the wrong amount of video ram
on my video card.
