Simply put, your chose a resolution/refresh rate beyond your monitor's capability to display. If you haven't fixed this yet, simply boot the computer into safe mode, and from there select a lower resolution/refresh rate.

Safe mode can be accessed by pressing F2 while Windows is booting up.

what if you have nothing on the screeen, total black, how do you even get to the point where you can set the resoultions back. I tried booting in safe mode and it still is black.
