Henk, thanks for the suggestion. I've removed power from the machine and even moved the card to a new PC, noticing that it worked fine in the second PC. I spoke with the manufacturer of my PC, and they said I would need a new motherboard. I've already ordered the new motherboard, so I'll see if that fixes my problems when I get it. If my problem persists after I receive the motherboard I will check back here. Also, mrsam: I checked my pci.ids file (/usr/share/misc on gentoo), and the file appears fine. Like I said, its not a problem with simply not showing up in lspci. The actual problem is that the PC recognizes the vendor IDs incorrectly for all the cards (all those that have an odd first-nybble). The "4444" vendor of my PVR150 is recognized properly. Booting from a gentoo livecd resulted in the same problem, so it must be a hardware failure. I still don't understand how it happened, but the machine is pretty old, so maybe it was just time.
