Problems with SCSI

David,

How do you have the CD drive cabled?  That motherboard has 68-pin SCSI 
connectors, and SCSI CD's mostly have 50-pin connectors, there are a few 
with 68-pin connectors, but it isn't common.

Do you have the CD terminated, and the SCSI on the motherboard's 
termination set correctly?

You need to check a jumper on your motherboard, the jumper is:
J92
This jumper effects the onboard SCSI.

This is in the manual on page 13

Enable the boot-time diagnostic screen, enable the summary screen as well, 
and check the boot device priority.  If you have SCSI enabled correctly 
this will be a choice to boot from it.

These are on page 54

         -Derek
