Also, try to remove the cable from the working NIC in the Compaq server and
see if the other NIC starts working.

I have seen this and the problem was at the server side. The NICs were
configured with one as fall-back redundancy that would only go active if the
first one failed. Actually calling this a problem is wrong. The system is
working as it was configured.
Have someone look at the NIC stats and see if one has very little or no
traffic. If that is so, the card configuration needs to be worked on if he
needs to have both running at the same time. That is NOS dependent.
