So to close the chapter on the Intel 82546EB not working with 64bit.  
New motherboard and no issues, works perfectly.

So the lesson here is never buy a low end system thinking you are  
getting a good deal because it might just come back and bite you in  
the a**.

Thanks Jesse and Tushar for all of your help in trying to solve the  
issue, it is as you both suspected, a BIOS issue and probably related  
to APIC.
