I know this is a vintage topic: ATI Rage 128 Pro - it's only half alive.
but here's the solution for this mystery problem (just encountered the same problem):
1) Make sure all chipset drivers (for your motherboard) are installed properly.
2) Go to device manager>display adapters and then remove the standard PCI graphics card (at least in my case it's a PCI Rage 128 Pro Ultra). Leave the onboard graphics driver the way it is (if you have any). Restart your pc.
3) Your pc will detect a new graphics card and suggests to install the standard PCI graphics card driver. Don't do this and instead select 'have a disk'. Select the drive where your ATI driver package is stored. Now browse in the driver package and search for a folder name that corresponds with your graphics card and operating system. In my case it was R1289x>Atidrive. In that folder you'll see a list of .INF files. Just select the first one and click on ok. Hereafter you'll get to see a list with all sorts of ATI graphics cards. Select the right model and install. Now what ever it says, just force it to install. Restart your pc. It will detect a new monitor. That's it and everything is installed. You should be able to see the ATI logo in the task bar in the right corner below (besides your clock). You can select this and mess around with all settings 😎
