Please check the irq on both cards they should not be the same. Change
the irq both cards can not be using the same irq on the same machine...

NE*000 ethercard probe at 0x240: 00 c0 0c 50 ...
eth0: NE2000 ...  using IRQ 10

Both card are the same type of card. Both are ok as they can 
be used on one same isa port. The other isa port cannot 
detect both of them so I guess it is spoilt. Do isa ports 
need drivers or controllers?


There's no place to enable second NIC nor isa port in BIOS. 
PCI, Serial, Parallel and IDE have in BIOS.
