Hi Scott,

You should be able to obtain updated drivers for NVidia GeForce from
http://www.nvidia.com.  They are supported by JAWS, although there were some
problems with versions of JAWS prior to 4.51, which introduced Display Chain
Manager (DCM).  Also, they're quite choosy about the display settings,
particularly screen resolution, which you may need to tweek in order to get
the best results, although the two GeForce cards I've had, worked best on
the XP default settings of 1024x768 and 32 bit colour depth.
