added capability to driver to run without an INT assigned. Driver now autodisables 'Sync_to_Retrace' functionality if it finds no INT assigned, instead of not loading/running the driver at all. This should enable some users outthere to finally run the nVidia driver on their systems. Bumped version to 0.56. Note: While driver has been tested with INT assigned, it has not yet been tested without it. (got to find a system which has the option or fixed disabled BIOS setting).
