Tim,

This looks like a BIOS problem.  It looks the interrupts aren't being setup correctly in the system and the driver can't request them.  Why it's working on some kernels and not others may be do to some BIOS setup with the interrupts that happens in one and not in the other.  Does the MB have the latest BIOS on it?  Please make sure and test it again if not.


Cheers,
John
