What's the deal with nVidia cards on install?

I have two dual Athlons with a GeForce 4 and a GeForce 2. On both of these machines, the installer correctly identified the video cards. However, when it came time to configure X during the installation, every resolution and color depth I tried would fail. I eventually just skipped it and moved on.
