Okay, I moved the card to the uppermost PCI slot (just below AGP), I think
that's #2. (Is it just me or are the 64-bit slots physically incompatible
with 32-bit cards? You can mount a 64-bit card to a 32-bit slot but not
the other way around.)

Here are the results:

So does this mean the bus is broken?
