Cant get any geforce driver installed

I   built a computer, my first time actually building from the case up.  
  But I have been dealing with computers since the Commodore 64, the Commodore 128, and the all time great TRS-80.  
  So, I have a little experience with computers.
My computer as is:
Xp home
P4 2.4G
2x256mb (512mb) - PC1066 Rambus ram
gigabyte p4 titan board
40gig hd
Creative DVD 5x
Sony 24/10/40 burner
SBaudigy platinum
MSI gforce4 ti4800SE.
  Every time I go to install the driver for the videocard, be it msi or nvidia,  when it gets to the end, it automatically reboots. (no warning, no confirmation).  
  The machine also does not finish installing the driver, once rebooted, somtimes it goes into an endless loop of rebooting, (until i choose to enter safe mode).  
  And, when the machine does reboot correctly, it still does not finish installing.  
  XP comes across a fatal error and shuts down at the last second before install has finished the driver.
  During installation, it comes up that Microsoft has not certified the drivers with their WHQL seal.  
  A couple times, I did get the driver installed, but for some reason it still did not work right,  games were extremely slugish or graphics were streaked.
  Sometimes I have to reinstall windows, or atleast attempt to re-install the driver, to no avail.  
  If anyone could help me it would be very appreciated.
  I have never called tech support, and by the reviews I got for the MSI tech, I do not think they will be a great deal of help.

Ok here is what I did because everytime I tried to install my drivers for my Video Card the setup would say I didnt have a Nvidia card so I
downloaded the newest drivers expanded them then I went into safe mode made sure all the drivers were uninstalled and registry didnt have any in it then I manuly install the drivers with windows new hardware in control panel
also make sure your device manage in system propertys is clean
If that doesn't work for you then reinstall windows without formating and do it again GL 8)
