Far Cry 2 - Disable Video Driver Check at Start-Up?

My Desktop rig is WinXP SP3 with a nVidia GeForce 7900GS 512mb.

Every time I start Far Cry 2 a dialog says my drivers are out of date,
BUT they are NOT out of date.

According to nVidia I DO HAVE the latest WinXP drivers.

There may be updated drivers for Win7 or Win8, but NOT for WinXP.

Is there a way I can stop the Video Driver Check?
