Default Nvidia not updating drivers for Geforce 2 and below?

Well, I just performed a clean install of windows XP and the first thing I did to get rid of that 8-bit color depth on my desktop was to download the new detonators from nvidia.com. The version there is 29.42 I believe...

Anyhoo, I installed it and the version reported in the advanced display properties for my nForce IGP is 28.32! I then went to guru3d.com and downloaded the refresh-rate fixed 29.4x drivers and found that the only cards to choose from in those drivers are geforce 4!

Has nvidia stopped updating drivers for legacy products?

Yes, that is what I did... got the drivers straight from nvidia.com. I also tried the drivers from guru3d.com and experienced the same problem, no support for older nvidia cards in the new drivers. I guess its just me :wtf2:
