   Try going into safe mode.  Press the space bar as soon as you see the boot   
   loader starting up, in safe mode choose all options.  If it boots then, you   
   test which option needs to be turned off to get it to work.  This can then be   
   set in a kernal control page at /boot/home/config/settings/kernal/drivers   
      
   Note in this test mode you will get grey shade only.  If you can get this far   
   we can tell you how to get the colour back.
