I too struggled with this situation (ie having to install the nvidia drivers on an nforce chipset PC with intergrated LAN, video and sound to make RH7.3 work).
In the end I started from scratch again and installed the 'development tools' (at the install screen where, for example, KDE or Gnome) - that got rid of all the gcc, kernel-header and related issues and errors.
Also, I used the source (ie SRC.RPM) files for all three packages (ie the nvidia kernel, GLX and the nforce driver 0241) and compiled them. That still left updates of the XFree86 and modules config files ... but I got it to work, even though it took three months elapsed (I am a week-end newbie...).
Good luck!
