Installing New Nvidia driver

Does anyone have a procedure for installing the latest (or any) nvidia driver ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Does the live boot work ok? If so check the XF86Config-4 file and see if it has a driver section. If it does copy it into your /etc/X11 Directory. Be sure to edit it after you install the 3 other files mentioned in the last post.
