display

So i used to use Ubuntu back when it was 8 and it never gave me any problems but recently i did a fresh install of 11.10. But now when i install the N-Vidia restricted drivers i cant change my screen resolution from 640x480, the display menu says "can not detect display".

There is no way to navigate the screen really because the windows don't work and I'm not very command prompt keen please help i love Ubuntu!
