lost the ability to play several older games. Specifically I now get a black
screen instead of the game screen. I can hear the video in the background.

I know that this was a fairly common problem and there was a simple cure but
I've forgotten what it was and where I read about it. (CRS) Does anybody
have any info on the cure?

Hi John,

Do you have the card attached to the right display card.  Check out your 
setup by using Apple System Profiler which is located in the Apple Menu.
