The card layout WAS:

Slot 1: Video Card
Slot 2: AdvanSys ADP-940/70UW SCSI
Slot 3: SMC Ethernet.

I removed the SCSI card, no help. Moved SMC ethernet to slot 2 and it
works.  I can still not get the AdvanSys SCSI to work. It sees the cards
and can tell what kind of drives are attached but it can not talk to them.

I suspect that I will need 2.0.35 with its advansys drivers. I also
suspect that I will end up with the Video card in Slot 3 and the ethernet
and advansys cards in some combination of 1 and 2.
