I ended up wiping out the hard drive, I couldn't find a control panel for the twin turbo before I did it anyway. It was acting wacky, and I didn't need any of the stuff that was on there, so I cleaned it off and did a new install of 8.6 and got it working. Then when I got online, I downloaded new drivers for the twin turbo, reinstalled the card... no more green. Yea! I'm thinking about using my new PTP gift as our server (to replace the current powermac 7500.) Now if I can get the dangblamed internal cd drive working... another day, another puzzle. Thanks for the help!
