The XFree86 version that shipped with RedHat 7.1 undoubtedly
predates your graphics hardware. You'll either need to update
to an XFree86 version that includes a driver for that card
(XFree86 4.4.0 or newer is recommended, but if I recall correctly,
4.3.0 might have worked on that card), or go to NVIDIA's web
site and install their binary drivers, which should work with
your current XFree86 version.
What you are experiencing now is probably no drivers claiming
they support that card so it's falling back to basic VGA which
won't do better than 640x480 in depth 4.
