Please be more specific as to what you did.

As a guess, try

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

and restart

Looks like you set a video mode just out of range for your monitor.
Did you happen to have been playing with the /boot/grub/menu.lst ?

If so, you'll have to undo the change. Boot in the recovery console and use
nano /boot/grub/menu.lst

Fix the kernel line with a valid video mode for your monitor (my pref is vga=773).
[Ctrl + o] to save and [Ctrl + x] to exit. reboot to restart from the cli.
