Can't get correct resolution

Have an old Dell Dimension 4550 with the AGP video card listed below. I just installed Zorin 9 Lite LTS which seems to work really well. When this machine ran Win XP and later Win 7 they were able to find the correct video resolution (1920x1080), but Zorin can't seem to correct it. Tried the driver search feature which came up with nothing. Anyone have an answer?

Hi, you need to be aware that Zorin Lite does not have the same life time as Core it is 3 years and nor 5 just like Lubuntu on which it is based. The design are moving away from LXDE to XFCE which is a good move. Zorin 9 Lite will no longer be supported at the end of this month. Here's hoping the long awaited successor is out soon.
