Just one thought, check your interrupts. This has caused problems
for me in the past.

cat /proc/interrupts
 
>From the dmesg output, it looks as if you may be sharing
IRQ's with devices that don't like to be shared. The worst devices I've
seen that often share and often cause problems are USB adapters and 
NIC's.  Don't load the USB drivers if you don't have to. Also, move some 
cards around in the PCI slots if possible.
