The problem is most likely your XF86Config file.
take a lookt at /etc/X11/XF86Config and make sure everything matches.
IE -- Vert Refresh and Horizontal Synch of the monitor, and make sure the
driver says "nvidia".

Actually, your best bet is to first go to www.nvidia.com and get the 
latest drivers.
To install the drivers, you'll need to go to INIT 3.  You can't install 
with the X-Server running.
Run the script, it will install the drivers, but for some reason won't 
"start"
the drivers, for lack of a better word.   When the drivers are 
installed, edit
XF86Config and make sure under the DEVICE Section of the file it says
Driver "nvidia" and not "generic", "nv" or something like that.
