You haven't given very much detail here but I suspect you haven't enabled your
nVidia's restricted driver. Try going through
System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager
and check the driver for your nVida card if it's not already checked. I
believe then you'll need to either reboot or log out and back in using CTRL +
ALT + BKSP
