Personally I love the Abit KA7, not only is it very stable, but thanks to the updated Inf file from Via - it rund absolutely flawlessly under Win 2K. I'm running an Athlon 800 with a Matrox G400 Max, so I don't really know about any issues this board has with the Geforce, but there have been several machines on sale over here in the UK the use a similar configuration to the one you describe withous (I assume) any problems.

If compatability is your main concern get a P3EB with a BX motherboard. Abit BE6-2 rules!
