hi
i recently installed a ati rage ll pci card into my retro pc with win98se.
it boots up fine but when i'm about to install the driver for it, it says "no display hardware detected"
what should i do? i can only have up to 16 colors and can't change to true color 32
What driver version are you using? I have the same problem with ati cards when using the installer but manual installation always worked
I have seen that also. Drivers that are easy to find on the web seem to always be super picky about what ATI card/version they work with, there's only one card in the universe for them and they deny the existence of any other card, well the auto install scripts do. However, point the windows hardware wizard to "This directory with the drivers in right here" and they should pick up and install fine.
Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

i'm using ATI windows 95/98 display driver w82420en, that version came out august 1998
when i'm doing setup, i get a error message that says this:
ATI mach64 family display adaptor not found
i have th ati 3d rage ll pci graphics card but when i check dxdiag ig says standard pci graphics adapter (vga)
i maybe using the wrong driver, however, which one is the right one?
here is my specs:
pentium 3 500 mhz
384 mb ram
windows 98se
soundblaster 16 isa soundcard

Win98SE should have a built-in driver. But also you can use the driver from this page https://vintage3d.org. Works for my RageII+DVD
