From your post it seems that
- you used to have a Picasso IV card but no longer
- you use a backup from those days

If the above is true then:
This is normal/expected behaviour. Chip ram is used to display native
windows and to play native sound./ If you have more windows open, your chip
ram will decrease. The picasso board has its own memory, so chip ram always
stayed at 2 Meg (it simply wasn't used).
