We won't solve this in one post. Can you tell when you log in, does the mouse work properly?
Can you right click and get the sub-menu?
Is there access to a console at all? (prob not)
You could try re-emerging the basic gnome packages which may work.
Can you post your xorg log to see how it loaded. It's at /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
Perhaps the last few dozen lines anyway, it will be quite long.

ok... i cant right click .. i cant access the console bcz there is nothing to click aprart from the gentoo wallppaer. i can work in dos mod by pressing Ctrl+alt+F1....

i tried the emerge gnome command i dont know if there some other way for re-emerging
the Xorg log file is very long .. i dont know how to copy text from there and past it here in the forum.. i write down things on paper and then i boot windows and past the info here on forum... is there any easy way.....i cant caopy in nano :cry:
any how i opened it and the only this suspicious i found in it is below .

Code:
(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)
(II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GPU GART.
(II) NVIDIA(0): ACPI: failed to connect to the ACPI event daemon; the daemon
(II) NVIDIA(0): may not be running or the "AcpidSocketPath" X
(II) NVIDIA(0): configuration option may not be set correctly. When the
(II) NVIDIA(0): ACPI event daemon is available, the NVIDIA X driver will
(II) NVIDIA(0): try to use it to receive ACPI event notifications. For
(II) NVIDIA(0): details, please see the "ConnectToAcpid" and
(II) NVIDIA(0): "AcpidSocketPath" X configuration options in Appendix B: X
(II) NVIDIA(0): Config Options in the README.


the emerge --info command display tons of line of text the can fit in my screen so i cant write down it ... is there any easy way to bring that text here.

rc-status
Run level : Default
Dbus [started]

You can store emerge info in file by doing
Code:
emerge --info > NameOfFile


also if you want to read it from the console instead of file , pipe to less
Code:
emerge --info | less


If you emerge links , you can use it to get here so you don't have to reboot to windows , it's text-based browser and doesn't need X

Why are you starting Gnome as root?

Did you create a user during installation?

Also, you can paste your files automatically like this:
Code:
emerge wgetpaste

And for a file run:
Code:
wgetpaste /var/log/Xorg.0.log


Or to paste the output of a command:
Code:
emerge --info | wgetpaste


Then paste the URL here. :)

sorry , should have been more specific
If you don't specify a path , the file will be in whatever directory you are in when you run the command.
so if your in your home directory, that's where it will be
or you can tell it where to store it like this
Code:
emerge --info > /home/yourhome/somedirectory/someotherdirctory


you can put it anywhere you have write access to

I apologize , i believe there's a way to use links to get your info here , but i forget the exact steps and i'm at work right now , they use windows server :( .

Maybe you can try to cut and paste with GPM, which allows you to use your mouse from the console. I've very rarely used it as i haven't had the need so i'm not positive it works with links, but i do believe it can cut and paste. It's probably already on your system but if not , just emerge it .
Once you have it , you can look through the documentation, i think man gpm should have what you want
you can start it with
Code:
/etc/init.d/gpm start

and of course add it to your runlevel if you want so it's always there and running
Code:
rc-update add gpm default

This might not fix your problem but it definately won't hurt, you haven't synced your tree since jan. 8th,

try this just to make sure everything is up to date and correct
Code:
emerge --sync
emerge -avuND world
revdep-rebuild


in case your not familar with it , the first command syncs your portge tree so it's up to date with the latest packages
the second command is short for emerge --ask --verbose --update --newuse --deep world
which will up date your system , taking into account any use flags you may have set recently
revdep-rebuild is from the gentoolkit , emerge gentoolkit if you haven't already. this will try to insure that you have all the proper dependencies and libraries for your system and will attempt to fix it if you don't

It seems that installing nvidia-drivers after gnome removes the Gnome panel. Emerging gnome-panel should fix it.

there's a couple of options here , see the handbook , i like using
Code:
dispatch-conf


as it allows you to compare the old config file with the new, and saves the old file. In case your unaware , portage doesn't ususally overwrite config files, you will see this warning anytime a config file needs updated

Did you miss the part in the Gentoo Handbook about etc-update ?
Unfortunately it's tucked far far away in part 3 chapter 2 section 4.b.

Maybe your home directory configs got messed up somehow.
Try creating a new testuser:
Code:
adduser -g users -G lp,wheel,audio,cdrom,portage,cron -m testuser
passwd testuser

and login to Gnome as testuser
