Ok.
Try opening the dash menu (press the windows button on the keyboard, or click on the icon at the top of the launcher on the rightside of the desktop)
and type "software and updates".
The software and updates should show up, NOT software updater.(this runs the updater program, which you don't want).
If the software and updates doesn't show up, try "system settings"
If system settings, open it and go down to software sources, open it.
A new window will open and the last tab is additional drivers, select it and wait for it to run it's thing, when it's ready it'll show a list of drivers you can try for your card.
Best bet is to select the recommended driver and then select activate.
Enter your password and let it install.
When it's done, it'll ask you to reboot.
When rebooted a new program should be install called nvidia xserver settings. This is the nvidia driver control panel, your setting should be settable here.
If at any point trouble occurs look over this

Added: If it doesn't say recommended, look at ones that say tested.
