When you boot into Safe Mode, you do not use your systems video adapter in
other than SVGA mode (basic Windows Video Driver).

I believe the same with your monitor. Do you have the old monitor still and
have you tried to hook it back up?
Have you tried to uninstall the Monitor under Control Panel | System |
Hardware | Device Manager (in Safe Mode), reboot and see if Windows tries to
detect the new hardware?

Did you get any software for your monitor that you needed to load ... and
if, so did you check if there where any updates on the Manufacturers
web-site (not Windows ... a lot of times there driver updates for hardware
manufacturers is out-of-date)?

Control Panel | System | Hardware | Device Manager and there should be
Monitors in the list below.
Open that up and you should see your monitor. Right-click on the name of
the monitor and select Uninstall.
The immediately reboot after closing all windows.

I'll have to reboot into Safe Mode and see if Monitors shows up in my list.

Do you see Keyboard, Mice, Modems, Ports? On my system Monitors is between
Modems and Ports.
