What system are you on (what gfx card), and have you followed the Debian wiki https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers

Also are you on 64bit wheezy/jessie or ?.

I'v been troubleshooting much in regards to nvidia the last few days, so had my share of problems....lol...

The first thing you can do is to check if you have access to the terminal by doing "ctrl+alt+F1" when you have black screen (wait until the system have had time to "load" before issuing the command).

Second thing you can do is when GRUB loads up press "E" and edit the command line that says "linux.....something", it probably ends with "Quiet" - put in "nomodeset" just in front of "Quiet" and press CTRL+X to boot.

You can also try "nouveau.nomodeset=0" instead (without quotes on both ofcourse).
