What errors do you get when trying to run "startx"? Looking through /var/log/X[Free86/org].0.log may give further information. Try running xf86config/xorgconfig or xf86cfg/xorgcfg to reconfigure your X server. Have you tried the nvidia drivers from their website? You could also try using a generic vesa driver....but your best option is to get the nvidia drivers working as the performance is greatly improved.
