So, in troubleshooting, I reset the CMOS jumper to default it, and still no
go. I then proceeded to pull all components, including motherboard,
thinking that perhaps the m/b was grounding out, and still no go. I then
pulled out my old RIVA128 TNT STB vid card, put it in, and it worked,
booting up to bios screen. So I determined there that the Herc DDR vid card
was wasted, and went out and got a new GeForce 2 MX400. Came home and put
that in the isolated m/b, and no go on the new vid card. I have pushed down
as hard as possible on both the geforce cards trying to seat them as good as
possible, but to no avail.

It sounds like your MB is toast at least as far as that slot in it goes. Try
a PCI vid card instead of a AGP card or vice versa I am not sure which type
you are running. But most of the high end cards are AGP as I understand it.
