The problem is that after installing the drivers for my rage128pro and rebooting the screen just goes blank when the desktop should appear.
I'm running windows 2000
Latest ati drivers
latest via 4in1
latest bios
It just goes blank (the monitor stays on) and I have to reset the machine.
I also tried an ati rage128 but the same thing happens.
Anyone know a cure for this?

Could it be the default Resolution/Refresh rates don't like the monitor ?!?
I usually boot back into safe mode and uninstall the display driver, then reboot into normal mode and have it redetect the display once more, be sure that it doesn't set some weird refresh rate that the monitor can't handle or display properly.

OP
I doubt that and I don't have a way to check. I think it's a chipset/graphics issue.
