Default WTF Proliant and SP4 = Death

Got the service Pack crap SP4 on a Windows 2000 server

had the BSOD cycle until I found it was the Network Cards..(both) causing
it..

If I boot in Safe Mode and disable then boot, activate on of the cards, then
reboot its OK for a few hours or min.. than crashes again

this is a Proliant ML 530 with a 100 and a Gig card..

if I disable the cards the Servers stable..

I have tried reinstalling the cards, moving the cards, upgrading the
drivers, reinstalling SP4...

all 111 hotfixes

yet all to no avail..

Still BSOD's with KMODE, and a few others like IRP, and stack errors

The server is a DC, what would happen if I put in the Server CD and
reinstalled with winnt32.exe, I know on a workstation it keeps the settings
and resets most of the stuff back to the original install... would this work
with a server with AD ?
