Other options to try are "pci=routeirq", "acpi=off" and "nolapic" (plus
combinations of all of the above).

Since this seems to be an interrupt problem it might help to see the
output of
cat /proc/interrupts
before and after the network card fails.
We also need to know what cards we are talking about exactly and which
modules are loaded:
lspci | egrep -i 'net|ether|vga|display|video'
lsmod | egrep 'drm|agp|rhine'
