Nvidia has a linux driver for your card here. Just download the installer (.run file) and run it.
Alternaltely, did you try following the Nvidia driver guides at fedoraforum? It looks like it from the name of the package, but I've got to be sure, you may be missing a package that is needed for the card to work properly.

However when I check what I have installed against what is on the nvidia site I see where I only have 177.xx drivers and nvidia site has 180.22, which was released on January 8th. When will an update one reach the rpmfusion repos.
I just installed the nvidia 180.22 drivers from the test rpmfusion repos and that seems to have fixed the problem. However I am interested in what you mention above. I have since two years used the livna repos version of the nvidia drivers and can't remember when last I would have run any video configs. Thus I expect that the livna config is the one that would have been run. Also, I recently moved to the rpmfusion repos and there I installed the akmod-nvidia package.
I must say however that I have been experinecing this problem for some months and am not sure at what point it started to occur. Do you think I need to revert to the 177.xx drivers and try the config stuff.
If the 180.22 update has solved your problem than I see no reason for you to revert back to the 177.xx, unless you want to use them for testing to solve the problem and provide information for others.

I'll try and revert in the coming week and see if the config options you suggested would affect the problem.
