Does: xrandr --size 1280x800
fix it for you? (no idea if this could be bad for the monitor - old CRTs could be damaged by setting improper resolution, I thought)
You could always do (as a new script):
xrandr --size 1280x800 sleep 40 xrandr --size 1024x768
to test that res and restore the old one in 40 seconds (make it shorter if you want) so you dont have to reboot again to see your desktop.
if it works, just set it to the correct res as above.
