Can anyone help me out with drivers for this card for Windows ME, the 128 Pro drivers from ATi do not recognize the card at all, I am aware that these require the OEM drivers for non ATi made cards but have had no luck finding them for this card.

Best,
Chris

I've never done this, but apparently you can try two things:

- Just unpack the driver, then force the driver through device manager manually. After you run the installer you should find the files in c:\ati

- Edit the installations file to include your card / vendor. I don't know the process for this, but surely you will find something on Google!

Thanks Phil, I will see what I can do, also have a Sapphire RAGE 128 Pro/Ultra that also won't play with the ATi drivers. For now I have installed a Radeon 7000 VE 64 MB AGP, it's almost certainly a better card anyway, just wanted to bench the Pro/ultra's against the All-in-wonder 128 (non pro) that I have in another machine.

I never met a Rage card that would not work with ATi drivers.

They exist, mostly those OEM low-profile Rage 128 Ultra. These things have different device ID than regular R128p. Installing driver manually via device manager works fine, the tricky part is to choose right name that represents Rage 128 Pro - something like "Xpert 2000...." ATi names for these cards are terrible and hard to remember.
