Still sounds like hardware to me. If you said that the video drivers were the same on the
maintenance and production OS systems, then I would say it's not the video card. But
here are your symptoms:

1. Video use to work OK on both your production and maintenance OS
systems, which use different video drivers

2. Now your production OS can only work in VGA and GENGRADD

Maybe your production system will work right now with the Display Doctor, too (just like
your maintenance OS), if you installed it there. It sounds to me as thought you might
have hardware that is marginal somewhere, probably on the video card (on its way to
giving up). It use to work work with all Scitech drivers, GENGRADD and VGA. Now it
doesn't work with the SNAP drivers!

Just a thought! If you have an another video card, I would swap it out. Alternatively, try
running the Display Doctor drivers on your production system.

Just a thought!
