Well, it looks like NFS7 isn't compatible with old video cards, especially GeForce. Many people are having similar problems. Get new drivers, contact EA, and if nothing works, you'll probably have to get a new video card.

http://www.megagames.com for the crack
and download the patch via the update link in the start menu

first install the update and then install the crack. Also an asus geforce 2 is the same as a Nvidia Geforce 2. Asus uses Nvidia chipsets and reference so download the latest drivers from nvidia.com and install direct x 9b

My friend had some trouble with NFS:U so i told him about a site called EVGA (http://www.evga.com) . They are an official partner on NVIDIA and tey have the release the new NVIDIA drivers onto the net about two weeks or more before NVIDIA do. I downloaded the 53.03 drivers from their site last month and that improved my firends gameplay after he reinstalled NFS:U. As i already had the drivers i had no trouble at all.
