My system:

Windows XP Pro SP1

Asus P4C800 Deluxe motherboard with embeded 3C940 NIC (IRQ 22)
3C940 connects to a router and I use it for internet. Gets its address via
DHCP.

3C905 NIC just installed on PCI 5 (IRQ 21). I use this card to connect to an
internal LAN. Has a fixed IP address (different class from the other card).

The problem occurs when trying to enable the LAN connection on 3C905 NIC.
The system just reboots.

ZoneAlarm was the problem.
I've just uninstalled it and everything works OK.
I use a different firewall now.
