I hadn't try it yet because i read that works only with geforce 5 or high. Now i Proof.

Author Update #2 @Raldo 2008-01-07

They don't work. I've installed the kexts, but us before, GeForce.kext and NVDAResman have sent my kernel in panic, so i've erased them. Further I know that NVinject are not compatible with my card. Do I have to install kext with NVinject?

Author Update #3 @Raldo 2008-01-08

I've installed drivers, mac and drivers work, system profiler know gpu model, but QE and CI are not supported yet. How do I solve?

Field Note #2 @zephyroth 2008-01-08

When the installer lets you choose, you must check both NVidia-Kexts and NVinject (depending on the amount of ram on your graphic card).

If you still have kernel panic, check that the dev-id that matches your card is in /System/Library/Extensions/GeForce.kext/Contents/Info.plist below IOPCIMatch.

Field Note #3 @madeBR 2008-02-02

this card don´t is supported on osx. buy a fx5200 or other superior graphic card.
