Why not just use the older Nvidia Linux Version: 1.0-8776 drivers?
Just unpack the older drivers from Nvidia's archive and install as before, 
in fact someone proabably already has a package of those drivers sitting 
somewhere.

As far as being forced to upgrade to pci-e you should be able to get 
boards that support agp, or both. I know a few AMD socket 939 boards 
support both, Asrock makes a few.  You could always go with onboard 
video, AMD is coming out with a few, Nvidia has a few as well.
