Indeed. If it had and Intel processor or chipset
I might be better equiped to help debug it...;-)

of course you're on your own when using ndiswrapper...

ERR interrupts are not a good sign.
Really a box with multiple CPUs should not be run in noapic mode...

The code below makes OSI(Linux) clearly a NOP on this box,

of the Windows OSI strings -- and Linux sets all the Windows OSI strings....
I'll add this box to the NOP DMI list.
