Not run at all or just not with the nvidia drivers? What symptoms are
there (examples: doesn't boot, graphics don't start, doesn't show
login, doesn't show desktop, blinks then fails to start)?

Simpler, way to get the nvidia drivers working, assuming you have a
desktop with nouveau, first set up RPMFusion
http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
(both free and non-free)

Then READ (i.e. don't do yet):
http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia

* run:
yum install kmod-nvidia
This might not find anything if the drivers are still in
updates-testing, so you may want to try
yum --enablerepo rpmfusion-free-updates-testing --enablerepo
rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing install kmod-nvidia

*now follow the instructions from http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia

*restart your computer (just X is not enough as you need to lose the
nouveau module)

If you have no desktop at all, then maybe try booting with the
rdblacklist=nouveau or rdblacklist=nvidia option to force the vesa
driver.
