I think he is trying to run dos game in newer machine, and out of range message means that computer runs game so fast, that monitor can't keep up with it. :D

Try to run game using DOSBox with that game, if is pure dos version. If it's not, try to lover your frequency by selecting it, instead of using 'optimal setting'. (DIsplay panel >> advanced)
