I have been fighting this for some while now. I have RC3 everything works everything is found except the Video Card, All it show up as in Device Manager is VGA Controller. Now I went and downloaded the Win2000 Driver for the Video Card, and it has a setup-up file and everytime I run this files it come up with.
"Severe:Set-Up could not determin the Display Adapter, please set it to Standard PCI Video Display Adapter"
Something like that.
 
And one time it came up and said:
"Severe:All the files could not be copied try again"
 
Now How do I do that. Plus I have tried going to properties and Up[censored] Drivers and copies everything, then when I rebooted it shows a YELLOW BONK! over RAGE IIC PRO something arather. But if i goto Setting in the Display properties where you change the Colors and Resolutions, it show My monitor on "VGA".
 
So what the heck is wrong is it the MINI PORT driver or what...
Now when I installed it I did it from WIN98se and chose to to CLEAN INSTALL, to where it will dual boot....
Please help me

The ATI beta video card drivers don't work with any beta or RC versions of Windows 2000. I had the same problem as you and ATI tech said I had to upgrade to final for the drivers to work.
