I did something very similar to that: I downloaded the newest driver,
booted in terminal mode (without X), installed the newest driver from
the Nvidia web site, booted - and got blinks + bailout to terminal.

In the other cases, as I say, I got blank screen (no signal).

I don't understand why physically disconnecting the card would make any
difference.
