After posting in computer help, and reading evga site as well as a couple others.. It seems to be most likely that the reason my 8800GT doesn't work, is because it is not compatible with the power supply..

"apparently it is a timing issue, when your computer first turns on the PSU sends power down each line and then backs off waiting for the computer to start the boot process. With the G92 cards they are expecting to see this at a different time than when they are actually getting the signal and it causes them to think they are underpowered so they clock themselves back"
...
I had an XFX XXX video card that did work, also an 8800GT 512.
However, I sent that back because of a blunder by XFX. I won't get into that.
The card I have now is an eVGA, and it's stuck in x1 mode probably because of what I quoted above.
Basically, can anyone help me find a card, not xfx, that will work with my power supply? 🙁
Thanks.
