that didn't work, but i was able to go into recovery mode and noticed that i
had a few different xorg configs and two other xorg configs with fglrx AND i
also had an original config that was backed up when i first installed fglrx
AND I also had my own backup that i had created prior to making my first
changes when i installed fglrx. which i didn't know occurred automatically.

okay, this is still odd that i made zero changes to any xorg.conf file and i
was getting NO SIGNAL INPUT CHECK YOUR VIDEO CABLE INPUT SIGNAL OUT OF RANGE
from my monitor. like i stated previously i only swapped out the xbox vga
cable and replaced with the vga cable that was going into a separate box.
