I tried to put the vga=xxx option in grub but when I did it wouldn't boot. Any ideas why.

Thanks

An eksampel could be...

vga=791

Then save and exit lilo.conf
and run

Code:
lilo


You MUST run lilo after changes to the conf file :)

Grub reads its config file every boot, lilo creates a binary image that it reads. So with grub you can just change grub.conf and with lilo you need to tell it to create a new image.
