Please do as you are told and read the OFFICIAL gentoo website? |

-----begin snip--------- |
| 14 |
Older cards such as the GeForce 3 or GeForce 4 series require the 96.x |
| 15 |
drivers. For these cards, you should mask >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-97.00 |
| 16 |
in your /etc/portage/package.mask file. This will prevent newer |
| 17 |
versions of the driver which are incompatible with your card from being |
| 18 |
installed. |

This information is also found on nVidia's website. |

I have the (almost) exact same card as you do. It should not be a |
| 24 |
problem. |
