I've tried installing THREE DIFFERENT VERSIONS of the drivers now, and I always get the same error.
Here's the pertinent portion of my XFree86 log file. I had to copy and paste since my computer is bloody stupid:

The area with the stars is where it lists a few dozen screen modes and why they won't work. Some the vrefresh is out of range, some the hsync won't work, others I think won't work just to annoy me. My system's not the greatest, but it works fine together in Windows (I know, Linux isn't Windows. I'm just saying that it does in case it matters :) ). System specs:
- PNY GeForce 4 MX420 64MB (PCI version. Could this be the problem?)
- Latest driver
- Mandrake 9.0
- the video bios thing says:
Model: GeForce4 MX 420
IRQ: 10
Video BIOS: ??.??.??.??.??
Card Type: PCI
That looks pretty wrong...
- AMD K6-2 (SOON TO BE UPGRADED) 500Mhz. 192MB SDRAM.
I just want this problem fixed in any way possible. I'm just about sick of Linux as it is, and if I can't get this thing running, I'm out completely. My XFree config file is attached if it helps any. The Nvidia driver is commented out so I can get back into X to type this. If you need any more info, please ask. I just noticed the thing about a verbose log. I'll go try that and post it when I'm done. Thanks for any help any of you can be on this.
