It doesn't, actually. Device 0x0034 isn't supported by the i2c-nforce2
driver (yet). No wonder it doesn't work.

What kind of nForce chip is it? If it brand new?

You may take your chance and add 0x0034 to the list of IDs in
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-nforce2.c. If your chip is actually compatible
with the earlier incarnations, it may work. Or it may not work, and
may even do bad things. Unless you have a datasheet, it's impossible
for us to tell. And you're on your own if something bad happens, of
course.

If you try it out, please let us know the outcome.
