You should download 10.1 for 64bit.

There shouldn't be any problem with the 7300GT card since most of Nvidia works perfectly in Linux. What happens when Linux load, do you get a graphical login or does it prompt you in the shell?

You can still install your video driver, I suggest you follow this guide and have a look. Everything can be done in the shell, you can still run YaST, just log in as root and type yast2, but navigation is a little tricky.

Here's the link

I looked it up and NDIS works with your card. Read the wiki to see which driver you need, and how to install.
