Yes I too had edited /etc/X11/XF86config.In the monitor section I deleted
hsync and vsync line.When I executed startx it probed the monitor (xfs it-self
updated into CF86config) and I could get into GUI , but I am scared to suggest
this, it had worked for me many times.

Many of the configuring tools have very limited capabilities...editing
by hand is the best solution...man xorg.conf (or XF86Config) is
excellently maintained..I had a similar problem, and the culprit was
the hsync and vsync ranges of my monitor - I had to pull up my monitor
manual and key in the values.
it moves on...
