Question on Nvidia Graphics Cards

I just installed a Nvidia GeForce Ti 4600 in a Mac G4 MDD, do they make drivers for this thing or does the OS naturally install them by default? I know with some ATI cards they have drivers. Do you need to use a kext file add in to activate it, it does show up in System Profiler so I am thinking it is already using it by default am i correct?

The drivers are already in the OS, whether it's OS 9 or OSX, for your particular card. The drivers are loaded on boot up.

Apple used both NVidia and ATI cards in the stock models so usually no driver installation is required.
