Are you sure that these are the right refresh rates for you monitor?

Vertical 56.0 - 76.0 seems a bit low to me, what are the specs of the monitor?

Try putting:-

Option "NvAGP" "1"

( or "3" might help )

underneath:-

Driver "nvidia"

You could try a default depth of 16 here and below instead of 24, might not do
anything but won`t hurt

Here is my XF86Config on a working system with an FX5600, note the diffs and
see if any help you, this XF86Config has worked flawless for the last 3
nvidias I have had with just a change to the AGP and the card id, everything
else is the same.

Have snipped the begining as it is boring stuff about fonts
