A lot of things here, so lets back up... First, lets get to a base
line. boot into recovery mode (command line) and run "sudo
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and select the "nv" driver for your
graphics. Type exit, and let it continue to boot. Log in. It may
still be a poor quality screen, but it me allow better.
No go through and remove what you added. This means all "envy" and the
drivers you downloaded.
Now run the System-->Administration-->Hardware Drivers. You are running
a very old card, so you need the legacy drivers. I believe that is
version 96. Try this and get back to us.
