searching for ATI 3D Rage Pro AGP 2X opengl drivers

Postby Dragon Mech » Wed May 29, 2013 1:34 pm

for somtime now i've been trying to find out if i have all of the Windows 2000 Professional drivers for my ATI 3D Rage Pro AGP 2X. including the OpenGL drivers too. i know that i have atidrab.dll (version 5.00.2180.1) and atimpab.sys (version 5.00.2179.1).and as far as i know i don't have any OpenGL drivers for my AGP either. i've tried to find out more by going to AMD's support site but they don't list it any more. i've also tried looking at wikipedia but no luck there either. and web searches only show the drivers for WinXP. i would be grateful for any help with this problem.

you can find the most recent info about my computer here: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=285&p=11294#p11294 . i did a search on my computer for any OpenGL drivers and i found opengl32.dll (version 5.0.2195.6611) and is discribed as a OpenGl client dll. i've already tried to play all the games that i have that have OpenGL video mode options and i either got a messages that my OpenGL driver(s) were out of date or non existent, or, the screen would go black and the program would freeze, crash, or just close it self.

When last month I was also searching, I also found everything on WinXP and nothing more than that, so after some times I left searching for it. But the solution provided by Dragon Mech was really helpful.
