x1950 Pro-Problem: 0B Video memory

Hey folks!

I'm not quite sure what happened but since a week or two, my VRAM seems to be... lost: dxDiag, Everest, SiSoft Sandra, 3DMark06 - every tool tells me that my Powercolor x1950 Pro xTreme 256 has 0B of VRAM. Installations also warn me about this "incompatible video card".

I can play almost anything, though. Only EarthSim's 3D Screensaver won't start.

I tried to solve this by installing Cat7.5 - didn't work.
Uninstalled, cleaned the PC and installed Omega7.4 - worked until next boot.

How can VRAM... disappear? This is really strange and I don't know how to deal with it.

Greetz,
Kringel

Well there might be some damage in the card's RAM chips so RMA it since it don't work as it should.
