I think I get it.  So I added the modeline:
Modeline "1024x768 at 50" 51.85 1024 1056 1248 1280 768 784 791 807

But it still don't work.  Running winedebug gives:
trace:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx width=1024 height=768 
bpp=32 freq=50 (XRandR)
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 
1024x768x32 @50! (XRandR)

My monitor/xorg can not do 1024x768x32 at 50, so am I out of luck or what. 
  I'm guessing I have to pick up a second monitor. :(

My xorg.conf
