It looks like your cards are based on the i82550 Ethernet controller chip. See the link:

If that's the case, replace your NICs.

Hi guys,

I have a franken pix that I am using for my lab. I upgraded the OS from 5.2 to 6.22. After I rebooted the pix, it stopped recognizing my NIC cards. All NIC's are brand new Intel Pro100 cards and they worked fine with 5.2. Any suggestions? Do I need to use any specific cards with 6.22. See error below:
