Hi,
Of course try leszek's approach, but I must mention that I had experienced something similar sporadically during my Linux years before the first bad boot happened, have you played with your graphics card or X server settings? If I remember correctly, there is a difference in how X server is started during normal boot and during recovery. This might be a complete blind shot but it's easy to try. When you manage to boot, open the terminal and run this command:
It will reset the configuration of the X server. The other possibility I see here is the nomodeset kernel option. When I used it, I had all sort of nonsense behavior, so it could also be that. Maybe try to remove it..
