Sounds maybe like an irq conflict of somekind.

it works fine. But when I try to ping to eth1 from that same computer I pinged eth0 from, I get an 
unreachable host error. Now, if I turn off eth0 ( ifconfig eth0 down ) I am able to reach eth1. 
When I bring eth0 back up I cannot reach eth0, only eth1. I have the same problem viceversa.

Looks like its always trying to connect to something; the light on the NIC turns on and off 
constantly. What can this be?
