Ok, I re-installed the OS last night and was able to go into the LiveCD by changing the display settings at boot (it appears it doesn't actually matter which resolution I choose, as long as I choose to change resolution at boot time).
Also, the problem appears to be the video card, as when installing the Nvidia drivers, X refuses to start, even after running nvidia-xconfig (it complains about failing to load module "wfb") or editing xorg.conf manually. So at least the system is now bootable, now its just a matter of getting the right video drivers installed and getting wireless to work again (killed linux-restricted-modules while uninstalling nvidia drivers).
