I removed all the previous versions of Nvidia packages using Synaptic Package Manager
I downloaded and installed the drivers from Nvidias' website:

Choosing the right OS version.
It started working after reboot!!

@Jonas: Driver errors are logged in the Xorg log file, can you please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log after the driver fails when you get the time? Thanks in advance.

@AbleUser: This sure is possible, but please don't forget that those drivers are really hard to remove once they're installed and you have to re-run the installation script when you get a kernel update.

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.
