Did you compare the output of "lspci -v -n" and the /etc/modprobe.conf
files?
Sometimes manufacturers will swap out minor logic on motherboards if the
chips are more or less similar (or the differences can be compensated
for via
a PAL)... So the same model MB isn't guaranteed to be exactly identical.
Especially if the rev numbers on the boards are different.
Are your BIOS settings the same, also?
