Default installing nvidia drivers on 5456

tried to install the nvidia vista drivers (88.61) onto vista beta 2 (5456),
they didnt work somehow got this message "the nvidia setup program could not
locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. setup
will now exit"
Graphics card: Geforce 4 MX 4000.

anyway to get the official drivers installed.
Thanks

Your card is not supported by the drivers per this list, so you need to use
the default drivers.

Hi,

I have a 6800GS and am running 5456, the default graphics card installed is
only a VGA compatible driver. You comment says that 5456 has Nvidia drivers
'in the box'. What did you mean by this, at the moment my card is not
recognised. Is there a way to install the 5384 drivers in to 5456 or is the
only to upgrade?
