I have been trying to set my X server to separate my screens but the Nvidia X server setting manager wont let me save to the config file just gives me a unable to create new X config backup file and when i try to apply changes it tells me to restart X. I guess my Question is How do i go about restarting X so i can get my other screen to work. Thank you.

Easy one
Open a Terminal, type
gksudo nvidia-settings (gksudo should work for ya, if it don't then use
sudo). This will open the nVidia X Server GUI and you can save your settings that way...
