Stop downloading MS drivers, and go to nVidia.com and get the driver directly from them. You may need to download the Legacy drivers (not positive) depending on what version of nvidia chipset you have.

I've had nothing but good experiences with nvidia's drivers, both on linux and Windows.

I have made my son's machine a dual boot. Win98 SE and FC5. The video card
is a G-Force nVidia "NV18 GeForce4 MX 4000 8x".

The FC5 found it and installed the driver. Every M$ driver I download says
no nVidia chip found, then exits.

I'm tired and disgruntled.

The idea is, he can do his flight simulators on the M$ side, web surf on
Linux. When I let him surf in M$, in a few weeks the machine is foobar
from downloads that do evil.

Any idea what is happening or where I might find the correct driver?
