Spent an hour crouched trying to figure if no boot was the mobo, GPU or ram of the MacPro3,1.
After a little bit of research and troubleshooting, narrowed it to the ram.
After a couple more hours swapping ram, risers & slots, I narrowed it to a ram riser.
Fortunately, it'll still do the server work on 12G of ram on the one riser, leaving me w/2G ram not in use.
Is the MP3,1 unhappy without ram split on both risers?
Should I be looking to split the ram onto a 2nd riser?
Running High Sierra via dosdude, if that matters.

Nope, looks a lot like same, but won't fit in physically. Riser in 1,1 is wider.
