I re-installed a fresh copy of Debian on an extra hard drive (I'm not about to experience the troubles I had on a good system) and so I tried to get the Nvidia drivers re-installed. I don't remember the way I did it before, but this time was much easier except I have to reconfigure X. I see the Nvidia logo which means that they were installed, I just need to configure X to use them.

What is the command line? I could have swarn there was a command line for it!

Thanks (again)!

I don't know the DEBIAN X configurator, but you can do it manually by editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file

I found the command, but I've reconfigured the darn thing a million times! Everytime I restart it, It's still at the default 800x600 even though I see the NVIDIA logo (which usually means a sucessful install). I might download another Linux distro and attempt to use it. I don't know why it is mainly Debian that gives the NVIDIA problems...
