nVidia 9800 GT 512mb issues

Hi, I've been trying eveything i can think off to get my card to work.. I don't know what I'm doing wrong... Here's my specs...

Dell E521 <with many replaced parts*..
nVidia GeForce 9800 GT 512mb (EVGA)*
AMD x2 64 6000+*
Broadcom 440x
nForce chipset.. not quite sure..
Sigmatel 9227 Audio

And I choose the following options at install(iPC 10.5.6 Final or something)..

9.5.0 VooDoo Kernel
Legacy Time Machine Fix
No Video Drivers
AppleNForceATA nForce Drivers
Sigmatel 9227
AppleBCM440xEthernet
Patched USB Drivers
Seatbelt.kext(For VooDoo .dmg mounting issue)

Everything works PERFECTLY except... QE/Ci.. well.. and res changing and such..

I've tried using the nVidia Installer 9xxx v2(I think it's called) and using the 8800 GT efi string(from OSX86 Tools, someone said it worked, it didn't for me), I've tried using this method for the 9800 GT(not 8800 GT like before) and it still didn't work.. Now... when I say it doesn't work here.. I mean the mouse gets erratic and unusable and sometimes when QE\CI decides to enable on boot.. The top bar is invisble and just the text shows and the mouse stil lags erratically.. The resolution changing works but it's completely unusable.. Also when I check the System Profiler while it's doing this it says Supported for everything.. It just LAGS..

Using NVkush gives me the same results.
NVinject gave me a black screen at boot.
I don't remember what NVdarwin did but I remember it not working..

I feel like I'm SOOOO close to getting everything running flawlessly.. Someone please enlighten me as to what is going wrong..
