There will be a section in the displayed info that states client glx vendor string and it should state NVIDIA Corporation.
Installing the NvidiaXServer Settings now, and when I put that command into the console this is the output-
Code:

So I have to think that it's not recognizing my video card. Thank you for all of your help so far as well, I appreciate it a lot
