I take it your using the nVidia release drivers 43.45 dated the 27th march 2003? If not you should be using these and not the ones from your manufacturer as they may not support DirectX9. I know it may seem strange that all other games work but it is possible to be the driver. I have a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 and it works fine even though the card is newer than the game so i wouldn't have though it would be that. Try running DxDiag from your run menu and then testing Direct3D just to make certain that it is working as some games use OpenGL.
Check that your hardware acceleration is set to full by right clicking "My Computer" then click properties then performance tab.
Also make sure your monitor will run at the same resolution as your trying to run the game in otherwise your monitor won't be able to display the game. Try 800x600.
