that's strange then. Because for me after installing LinuxMint or either
Ubuntu (right now) on my Notebook,
it went well in the first try. For me it works really fine. Then you
should really think about changing your
graphiccard.
Mine is this one: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation
C79 [GeForce 9200M G] (rev b1)
And this one works fine for me.
Then the next hint for you would be to install this ppa-repository here:

Perhaps this could solve your problem. It could be possible, that your
card is too new to be properly
supported by the older versions of the nvidia-driver. This ppa-repository
brings a newer one, which
should work fine for you. Or if you have already installed it, then purge
this ppa-repository and run
these commands in your terminal
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Let these commands run through completely. Then afterwards, try to install
the proprietary nvidia-
driver.
Tell me, if these hints help you with your problem.

Perhaps if you change your graphiccard??
