I don't think this is a Win2K problem per se. I have had very poor success with
any of the ATI Rage series on both WinNT and Win 2K. The Rage Pro chipset
appears to work o.k. but without hardware acceleration for OpenGL (VERY SLOW).
In my experience an ATI Rage 128 Pro on a WinNT performed not just slowly
but incorrectly, and therefore the video card had to be replaced with another
(NVidia-based) that did work.

Amongst my associates, ATI has a very poor reputation for OpenGL support.
This despite the fact that ATI claims (on their websites and in their product 
literature)
to have full OpenGL support.
