Many BIOSes will list PCI cards they've detected immediately before
handing over control to the bootloader. The bootloader will often put up
its own display, so you don't get to see this.
Do I understand that all your hard drives are SCSI? Pull the SCSI card,
and see if you get a list of PCI devices. See if that card is in there:
the device numbers will be those reported by lspci -n if you stick it in
a computer that *does* recognise it.
Have you ever flashed the BIOS on this motherboard?
