Catalyst Windows 98 / ME - Driver Download
https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...owledge&folder
ID=27

.... says the following for Windows 98SE ...

================================================== =========
Windows 98SE is supported through the Windows Millennium Edition driver.

For users that require a WHQL certified driver that is supported under Windows
98/98SE and Windows ME, ATI recommends using the Catalyst 4.3 drivers (Supports
Radeon 7000 through Radeon 9800 Series only).
================================================== =========

Should I download and use the driver located on the above URL?
Or, find (which I can't) and use the Catalyst 4.3 drivers?

4.3 sounds about the right version.

I don't know why ATI doesn't make available for
download a driver that they themselves recommend.

After installing both the ATI Catalyst 4.3 Control Panel and
the video card, I get the following message:
"The ATI Control Panel failed to initialize because
no ATI driver is installed, or ATI driver is not working properly.
The ATI Control Panel will now exit."

The "Settings" tab of Display properties shows
the display to be:
ViewSonic P815-4 on Standard PCI Graphics Adapter (VGA)

Anyone know what is wrong?

Nope... Just curious as to what you might be doing? g Actually this is my
standard chunk of spit junk for this sort of thing...

Head to http://www.driverguide.com and login... Use the user: drivers and
password: all combination for now OR sign up and get your own. Root in there
until you find what you want. Usually they've been kind enough to test such
stuff prior to posting and there's user reviews and the likes. I'd recommend
signing up for your own account as they have been claiming (for a couple of
years now) that they're going to kill off the generic password and user
combination. (Err... They haven't yet... Who knows if they really will or
not?)

Best guess is that you have display mismatch caused by enumeration
problems - start fixing it by forcing re-enumeration of the display
devices....
Reboot to Safe Mode
Open Device Manager
Remove ALL Display Adapters
Remove ALL Monitors
Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers
once that's done, see whether the ATI loads properly or not - if not, then
reboot back into Safe Mode, and run the installer again.
See if that works.

(Are you using Norton?)
