Hello, I have a Geforce 210 card, and I also encountered errors with drivers downloaded from Nvidia's site. In a forum I found a suggestion to use the XSWAT PPA, I think it is worth to try.
Open a terminal, and type the following to add the repository:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates

then, when the repository added successfully, update and install the driver like this:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings

I hope this will help!
Good luck!
