Installing NVIDIA display driver

[psychx]

I need help installing the newest or most stable Nvidia Display Drivers. I went to their website, and attempted to install, but found it somewhat confusing. I feel like I am not using the best drivers at the moment, video seems somewhat limited. I am running a GeForce 6600 on 1.00GB RAM and a 2.5Ghz Pentium 4 CPU.

Is there a way to install drivers using a synaptic-type application?

if you need a working graphics card only, just get "envy"

sudo apt-get install envy

Then run envy with sudo access
sudo envy

or gksudo envy-gtk
I forgot the exact name...

Envy will do everything for you

Perfect! So, will envy manage my graphics card? Are there any problems or drawbacks to envy? And what are the advantages, other than being able to install drivers?

Thank you so much for the quick response time!

You can also install it manually this way:

Just remember to grab the latest driver from there page
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

and use that new filename in the last steps.

I get the response that ENVY is no longer available.
