Can't "startx" after trying to install Nvidia drivers

I tried following the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA

1.Installed the correct driver

2.Reboot

3.generated a xorg.conf file

and after a final reboot, I get the following error.

I am looking to get the drivers to work not use the intel integrated ones.

Here are pics of the hardware and the log file

Remove the nvidia-xconfig generated config file, then read: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA_Optimus for your available options
