If SRO reads your drivers correctly, those are almost 2 year old graphics drivers. Your hardware is obviously good enough to play it so it's a software issue.
Uninstall nvidia video/graphics drivers from add / remove programs.
Restart your computer.
Your desktop will probably look really big now because you're using VGA mode.
Install the newest drivers for your card, and reboot again.
It may work now.
