Based on the great big pile of information you supplied, I'd say your monitor calved. Or you tripped on the cord and un-plugged it.

What I did is I reinstalled but I Custom install and took out system-config-display in x - windows. Thats it and it boot with video. So thanks again for your help.

okay!! information mean: what your hardware... please tell us what is your monitor, your graphic card, your motherboard, your kernel version, your graphic driver and version, and your /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
