At bootup look for the options line at the bottom of the screen and put the following on it: init 3 This will get you single user no-graphical mode. Log in as root. Simplest way is to invoke sax2 and redo your video card configuration. Then use: init 5 to switch to normal run level with x-server running. You can also manually edit the /etc/X11/xorg.cong file and change the line with the nvidia module name to nv, save and exit, and then issue the init 5, command and you should have your gui back.
