When I have problems such as you mention above (specific error messages) I tend to Google the message, in whole (except the time) and in part. Doing so a bit for you I would say that if I were you I would continue this with information about what is on the PCI bus (lspci), which drivers drive them (lsmod) and how CMOS is set up to use the interrupts and shared memory areas. If you have a live CD which runs the system without the error messages note the setup, epically the use of which drivers and modules. It may be as easy as changing out a driver or setting a CMOS switch. Good Hunting!
