I don't know much about this specific video card, but I checked out Matrox web
site and discovered that many people are having this problem.  It seems the
Millennium G200 takes SGRAM and NOT SDRAM as an upgrade module.  It seems the
two are the same size and shape and may be purchased in error and obviously
installed in error.

So, are you sure it is an SGRAM module?

If you are sure, then the web site had no further solutions.

Sorry I can't help more.
