A power fault caused it to drop all settings. I believe I have reset it
to the previous config and, at a minimum, it is compatible with Qubes
without the problem card.



Ah, OK.  Not sure what I'd do now in your situation.  About all I can
suggest is to research bios issues with that card via google.  See if
anyone else has had problems.  Not necessarily exactly what you had,
but just with that card.  It might give you some clues.

There are a couple in 5.6.11 that I will have a better look at tomorrow.
Not sure this will be it though. The system fails to boot on both 5.6.4
(previously working) and 5.6.11 (new).

At this point, I would rather suggest you to check in changelog of kernel
if there would be related commits but still, post a BZ issue on kernel.
