Have you tried installing Vista with the FX5200, the on-board display adapter having been de-activated in the BIOS?

I recommend disabling your Intel graphics controller if possible (perhaps in BIOS or with some kind of switch on the motherboard).
Vista (specifically the WDDM driver system) has a limitation that prohibits more than one driver from being loaded at once. I ran into the same situation with my ATI and NVIDIA cards, only one can be active at once per-reboot (I choose which is the primary in BIOS, and this is the only one that works). I confirmed this limitation with Microsoft, and it is by design. There is also a limitation that you can't run a WDDM driver and a non-WDDM driver simultaneously.
Hopefully you will be able to disable the Intel graphics controller. If not, I suspect you won't be able to get your NVIDIA card to work. If it doesn't work, provide feedback to Microsoft. At the very least, I believe this problem requires a better description of the error.
I have not tried this myself, but according to the information I have seen you may be able to use two non-WDDM drivers simultaneously (like in XP). This may be particularly applicable to your situation, where the Intel card may not have a WDDM driver. Try installing an XP driver on Vista and see if that works for you. Of course you won't be getting any benefits of WDDM.
I'm fairly disappointed with this limitation of Vista.

Well, for some reason i can't see BIOS from the fx5200. if you know how to enalbe it then i could try that.

I tried putting the default graphics card as the PCI and no output signal came. I will try again and see if i can disable the intel graphics card. The only problem is..if i disable it and it doesnt go to the pci card then how will i re enable the intel card since i wont have a screen?
I will try in BIOS and see. >

You should be able to plug a monitor into the active graphics card (either Intel onboard or the NVIDIA PCI) to see enough to change settings back in BIOS. If there is no signal from both sources, I'm not sure what you would do. I don't think that should happen though. I would assume that the BIOS is smart enough to prevent the video from going nowhere but I don't know anything about your machine configuration.
You didn't mention what your original configuration was when you took the screenshots. Was the monitor connected to the Intel? Do you have one monitor or multiple monitors?

Ok I went into BIOS and set the PCI as the default. The screen was black for about 45 seconds (so it was probably booting) then I pressed control alt delete and the logon screen appeared. I'm now on the GeForce FX 5200 card
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/4162/switch3wa.png
The other card was disabled, as you said there was a conflict in having to drivers at the same time. I am now using windows aero!!
Thanks a lot, michael
Glad you got that worked out. I knew it had to work since I'm running Vista on an FX5200 and have had no problems.

Get the Beta drivers from Nvidia. My 5200 (PCI) now works, but the some controls affect my (AGP) Getforce2 MX400 (2 cards in system). Before the driver update, Vista used the Primary Monitor on the GF2 and allowed the TV out on the FX5200 under ONE property sheet. The second Monitor was never found.
