There are now drivers for the RivaTNT, so you should be alright there.

MS OSes can't see any partition except ones formated with it's file
system.  It's unlikely it was trying to read the linux partition.  There
were rumors way back when 98 came out that 98 had some kind of partition
or something that it would move around and it could break linux.  You may
have run into that.  Linux shouldn't effect winbloze at all.
