The first thing you're going to have to do is get Open Firmware working.
I would suggest setting the resolution of your monitor in MacOS to
something smaller, perhaps 800x600 or 640x480 and see if that works. If
you still can't get into OF, you can try flashing the PRAM. If you
still can't get into OF I would suggest calling Apple, because that's
something that should work.
