Only that I've never heard of such a thing.  Surely it's a 32MB card,
no? :)

What desktop resolution and color depth are you using?  This sounds to
me a like the driver is having allocation difficulties and is
thrashing stuff out to main memory to make room.  Try running at 16bpp
and/or setting your desktop resolution lower (1280x1024 should be
fine) and see if that improves or changes the symptom.

Similarly, which version of the NVidia driver are you using?  It might
be that a performance regression got introduced recently that causes
problems on older (i.e. less-tested) cards?  I know that my laptop
(which has a 64MB Geforce 440 Go -- not too different from your card)
fails entirely with the two most recent driver releases.
