If the PCI busses share an IRQ, things can get pernickity.  Try a
different slot, or re-arranging the order of cards in slots.

I used to strike that kind of thing all the time.  Though in more recent
years, with all-on-the-motherboard peripherals, I haven't had to put in
several cards, any more.

There have been cards known to have duplicate MACs, though I don't
recall who and how far spread it was.  And I didn't see your message
mentioning how the MAC changed.

Hmm, hardware fault, or software driving problem?  A hardware fault
could be having several effects, only some of which would be immediately
obvious.
