Luis, thanks again for your feedback.
In all honesty my time is too limited to go further into this and I think that I have a pretty good handle on my interrupts so freeing more is not, IMO, likely to solve it for me. Going to a different mobo/netcard is not appealing to me because of the time constraints and that I /love/ recycling old hardware into something useful (and I'm really, really cheap too :)
The use of the /kernel/drivers/net via-rhine.o was the quickest, cheapest solution for me but maybe one day someone else will end up here and be able to test your ideas further.

/proc/interruptsHi!
Without any cable attached to the network cards, try to cat
I didn't do that particular check but I know who was getting what interrupts and no-one was sharing.and check if there is any interrupt sharing...
Beware, most boards have a quirk that makes the leftmost PCI slot to share the same int of the closest ISA slot, which means if you have a PCI right
next to an ISA card, chances are that thay might get the same one...
