You must install the Nvidia drivers from their site. Go to
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-5336.html and
install them. Download the file to your computer, then do this:

1. Logout 
2. Press CTL and F2 at the same time (will take you to a black screen) 
3. login as root 
4. Type "init 3" 
5. go to the directory whereyou installed the NVIDIA driver. 
6. type "sh ./NVIDIA-Linux*run" 
7. Follow the instructions 
8. Type "vim /etc/X11/XF*4" 
9. Scroll down with the arrow keys until you find the section that says:

Section "Device"
    Identifier "device1"
    VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
    BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce4 (generic)"
    Driver "nv"
    Option "DPMS"

10. Press the insert key, and then change "nv" to "nvidia".
11. Under Option "DPMS", add Option "NvAGP" "1"
12. Press escape, then :wq
13. Type "init 5" and you should be good to go.

If these instructions are too obvious, sorry. :)
