Exclamation NVidia GeForce 4 MX on RedHat 9???

Hello guys!
OK.. I upgraded my system with intel D865 PERL mother board and with NVidia Geforce 4 MX. I intalled redhat linux 9

During the installation the installer probed the video card as VESA(generic) type but not as GeForce4. Then after installation I changed the driver to NViDia Geforce 4 MX.But it wont allow me to enble the hardware acceleration???
Every time i choose to probe the video card it detects VESA(generic) driver??
What sould I do? Do I have to install the drivers? What are LinuxI32 and LinuxI64 drivers, what should i download?? (I saw them in the NVidia site)
