Your computer is fine, you just have to configure your video properly. That problem typically happens when you choose a resolution your video can't handle. Start or exit to the console (ctrl-alt-backspace if you can't read the menu). Run xsetup.sh and select settings suitable for your monitor. It's better to set it too low, but you can go through it as many times as you want to find the maximum resolution you can run.

No, at the prompt just type xsetup.sh. There's also a menu entry for it in "setup" called "X Setup."
