"Time out reading EEPROM[2]" telling me the first 2 DWORD is reading ok but not the 3rd read. How many PCI-E slots you have in your system, could it possible for you to switch to another PCI-E slot, or pull out and re-insert the NIC. Also, it is possible to put the NIC into different system and see if you are seeing the similar problem?
