What do you mean by "recognize"?
nvidia cards are usually supported by the nv driver which comes in your kernel.

I have found the drivers but all I have is a prompt.

Which drivers, where, how did you attempt to install them? Did you install fedora in graphical or text mode? Which release of fedora is installed? At the prompt, what happens if you enter "startx"?

How do I get these drivers from the website where they are at into my machine so I can install them?

Which drivers? Which website? How are you connecting to the internet?
The livna repository holds nvidia drivers for fedora.
Enable the repository and use yum.
Note: your card seems no longer supported by nvidia - you will need one of the
legacy drivers.
Note: it is a bad idea to use improperly packaged drivers with fedora, use the repos whenever you can.
