I had problems like this when I upgraded a video card.  Of course, the 
issue was that I needed to upgrade X.  I used the old card to install 
new X and rewrite X config which I gave a temporary name.  Then I 
plugged in the new card, booted to a terminal, cleaned up X config, and 
started X.
Let me guess;  you don't have the old card.
