A few problems exist.

1) The refresh ranges are wrong for your monitor. The manufacturer's site specifies:

HorizSync 30-81
VertRefresh 56-75

2) The modelines don't match the VESA standard. Go to http://www.sh.nu/nvidia/gtf.php to calculate them. Please use:

Modeline "1400x1050"  122.61  1400 1488 1640 1880  1050 1051 1054 1087  -HSync +Vsync

Or, better, boot into Windows, download a trial version of PowerStrip (http://www.entechtaiwan.net/util/ps.shtm), and export the current mode to the XFree86 Modeline format using this tool.

3) Many uneeded options (but it may be just that SuSE uses a severely patched Xorg version).
