try using Ctrl+Alt+BAckspace key combination to restart the X server..
Can you get in the text mode??

Look at the X log file which is probably located at
/var/log/Xorg.0.log (at least if you use the xorg version of X)
Look for lines with (EE) which are X errors (the symbols are defined at the top of the file).
