You weren't very detailed in you question, but I will try to help. First, the init level needs to be set to 5. Check the inittab file and make sure the default level is 5. Init 3 is commandline and init 5 is X. Type "init 5" from the command line to find out if X will start.
If that doesn't work, double check your config. Try running "Xconfigurator" from the command line and test the configuration after you set it up to make sure it works.

I have tried all the possiblities
Even though the init level is 3, it will
go to command line first...Correct.
But i have tried with Xconfigurator to
give the Display Card & monitor Driver

X server from the Xconfigurator, the following error is comming.

"Your display card ram is bad..."
