Hi Ric,

It doesn't note that a driver is installed. So, if you have the nvidia driver installed directly from nvidia, remove it. From a terminal run "locate nvidia", you might have to remove those files by hand IF you directly installed the driver from the nvidia website. Next, run software updater (it's in your XFCE system menu tab) and let it install your driver for you. Before you reboot, run /usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig to create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file for you. Then a reboot should have you up and running. I HOPE this helps. Ric
