G4 Video Help

Today, I rebooted my Backup server, and all of the sudden it wouldn't recognize my display as a samsung syncmaster 914v. it was working perfectly before the reboot and now it just won't recognize my display or pick out the natize res for the display. I have a Hacked GeForce FX5200 64MB, and a Gigabit G4 motherboard. I have tried reseting P-RAM, NV-RAM, and CUDA, but nothing helped. Also tried reseating EVERYTHING. I tried removing every other PCI card in there, witch there is only an ATTO Express PCI PSC, removing RAM and trying other RAM, tested the P-RAM battery to have around 3.4v, tried everything from what i have named to simple things like "Detect Displays". I need to get this back up and running by tomorrow at latest so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

google for "Preferential treatment" and use that. see if it pulls up anything wrong on your system
