If you can't live without it :
1) Boot without X, and login as root
2) sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.15-pkg2.run
 
It will compile a kernel module against your current kernel, and when you will upgrade the kernel you have to do it again.
Some minutes needed.
After that, follow what explained in the link above.

As suggested above do not install the run package but make sure rpmfusion is in your repo
then install it from either yum or add/remove software

If you install the above run file YOU WILL HAVE TO RECOMPILE KMOD on every kernel update.
If you do it from repo then  it is automatic


The how to details how to install correctly

You must blacklist nouveau in grub config before you reboot after the driver install

On each kernel line after quiet rdblacklist=nouveau
