OK.
I undsersatnd you do not see the nvidia card in hardware drivers. That seems to me not very toublesome, as the envy is an *alternative* way of dealing with hardware drivers. Actually I've never used it, and I do not know much as to how 'Hardware Drivers" work, but that's the impression I got from what I read.
Anyhow, your problem now is that you only get a 640*400 screen resolution, right?
The important thing is that you have the driver working.
Going for

Code:

modprobe -r nvidia

is not a good idea, as it attempts to remove the driver, and - thanks god! - just gave the error message that the driver is in use.
It seems, thouh, that the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is misconfigured. It's there that the available screen resolutions are defined. Could you please paste the content of the file? (you can open it by gedit or any text editor, and then paste it here).
In the screen you pasted there seems to be an option to change the resolution (the 640x480 box). Does anything happens when you do click on the box and then click apply?

thank you for the quick replay , I think the problem is in this file too bec the compiz work and all command i do for make sure the nvidia is install is good and it say it in use and X SERVER work as you see it in the picutre at last replay I do , The out put of my xorg.conf

Code:

# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by failsafeDexconf, using
# values from the debconf database and some overrides to use vesa mode.
#
# You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a "real" xorg.conf
# For example:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
