I think you're right...I just noticed this in the readme while looking
for something else:
6.5.6 Corruption at very high resolutions
Late in the process of testing our driver, we found that it is
possible to see some image corruption if your physical screen
size is set to 1600x1200. We will fix this in the very near
term.
There also seem to be many people with the Vanta boards complaining
about NVidia's drivers. They're a little different from the other
TNT2-based cards, so there might be something in those differences
that the driver can't handle.
