Did you try the ethernet cards alone? Their IRQ, I/O numbers must be
unique.

Try to swap the  ethernet devices at the append row. First the eth1 and
after this eth0 but it depends on the irq,I/O number. As I remeber we had
the same problem with ne2000 cards. Put the first place that card which
has less I/O or IRQ number ( I don't remember which one ). I hope this
will help.
