Talk:ATI Rage

How about some release dates to help put this into historical perspective (especially when comparing where other video card technologies were at the time). --24.249.108.133 23:36, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Rage128logo.png
Image:Rage128logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

3D RAGE IIC AGP for XP driver
Some links to where to get the drivers for the above would be useful - the ATI (now AMD) site does not provide any support about using it with XP. Although there is a driver available for it for 98/me etc. Given that this wikipedia article says that IIC is a cut down version of Rage Pro, with a driver for Pro reachable through http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html (choose legacy option), and that the hidden away release notes say "The display driver included in this package is for Microsoft Windows XP. This driver may be used with ATI products based on the RAGE PRO / RAGE XL." I am going to try that. If I do not post a follow up, then you may infer that it has ruined my computer. Edit: tried it, did not work. Got the "mup.sys" problem. Computer hung at logo screen, would only start in safe mode. Got it starting in normal mode by in Device Driver, clicking on the "+" beside Display Adapter, right click choose properties, disable the driver. Surprisingly, the display still works normally. I think Windows may have gone to the previous restore point as the driver shown is the Microsoft driver included I think with xp: 5.1.2535.0 dated 01/07/2001. So the driver included with xp seems to be the best available, despite what driver update scanners may say. Perhaps my video card hardware is defective. 78.147.5.34 (talk) 13:32, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Driver can be found here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/legacy-98me.aspx It's only available for Win98/ME as XP and onward are supposed to have drivers for it. Drivers for the other ATI cards on this page can be found using the dropdowns in the upper right part on http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx

ATI.com Web Site is Dead
Excellent article. Sadly, the link for ATI discontinued products doesn't work. Now it goes to http://ati.amd.com/products/discontinued.html which has had all references to the Rage series of products removed.

Most people reading this article will no doubt be looking for a new source of drivers for these products. (Is there a page for bashing AMD?) Lloyd Ewing (talk) 21:18, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

The "discontinued products" page still has listings for Rage products when I check it, and the drivers are still available. Juux 21:52, 9 March 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Juux (talk • contribs)

ATI Rage 128 Ultra 32MB
Where does this card fit in here? Supposedly it's Rage 128, but the Ultra part makes no sense. Is it 128 or 128 Pro? The sticker on the card says "ATI Rage 128 Ultra 32MB" with the Part Number 113N01000353. GPU-Z identifies it as RAGE 128 PRO ULTRA GL (this is the driver Windows XP has for it), with the manufacturer being Palit Microsystems. http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w44/perji_photo/ATI/atiultra.gif There's no such card on the ATI/AMD page. Needless to say, Palit has no such thing on their site either. I did however find a Dell part using this name. http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/video/rage128/en/index.htm You can also find drivers for this "ATI Rage Ultra" on the Dell site http://search.dell.com/results.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cat=prod&cs=19&k=ATI+Rage+128+Ultra+32MB&rpp=12&p=1&rf=all&nk=f&ira=False&~srd=False&ipsys=False&advsrch=False&~ck=tab —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.113.45.80 (talk) 14:48, 20 February 2011 (UTC)


 * The Rage 128 Ultra is in the "Powered by ATi" category of OEM uses of the Rage 128. No generic or reference Rage 128 drivers will install for such a GPU, only the drivers (often very out-dated and "feature reduced") provided by OEMs work with the Rage 128 Ultra. Dell and Gateway used this in a large number of desktop PCs. Bizzybody (talk) 08:43, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Performance Citations Needed
I appreciate the comparisons to other cards of the era, (e.g. "R128 is comparable to Voodoo 3") but that should be cited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ROM SPACEKNIGHT (talk • contribs) 22:13, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
