I don't know - sounds to me like the machine's PCI settings are scrambled.
It's clearly not seeing any Ethernet card at all (which it should be able to
do without the driver), and it's lost the USB card too.

The CUDA button for a desktop StarMax machine can be seen here:
<http://people.musc.edu/~schwarda/ram_slots_cuda_button.htm>

The amount of time that you're meant to press this varies from 5 to even 15
seconds; when pressing it, have the Mac switched off, but connected to the
power (in case your PRAM battery is dying). Someone found a 10" wooden kebab
stick to be the best way to reach and push a CUDA button (tho I made do with
a plastic letter opener ;) Just be careful what you touch, of course (static
electricity etc) - same precautions as when adding a card.

With luck, this will clear up any confusion in the CUDA/PRAM and it will see
all the cards after that, but there are certainly reports of cards needing
to go in certain slots. I don't know how that affects a 3000/200, though. I
think my Ethernet card is in the top slot of my 4000/200 desktop machine,
and it works fine.

You could certainly try other slot arrangements although someone else here
probably knows exactly what slots they'd go in and why. PCI is a bit
problematic in StarMaxes :)

> or is the starmax just supposed to recognize it as an ethernet card?

I have no idea, though I assume that the program will recognise any Ethernet
card as such; however, it isn't going to come back claiming to be the
original ATI Mach64VT video chip which is present on the motherboard (the
video chip in a StarMax is on-board) - that's plain wrong. At the very
least, you'd get a different PCI card ID - mine's just "pci1259,2503" - but
it's clearly another card.
