I use a NEC UltraSync 15 with my 7300's internal video, and the System Disk
patch works just fine. Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your PRAM
battery or NVRAM?

Next time you start into MacOS, just for yuks, set your screen to 640x480
at 8-bit and 60Hz, and shut down, then try to go through the steps again.
Just about any VGA monitor should sync to that.
