first I would try the Nic Card. If for some reason that doesn't work I it wouldn't hurt to try the 64 bit version if the nic card doesn' work.

I believe there is physical limit of 4 gigs on a 32 bit system. So you may want to consider going 64 anyways for this server.

If none of this fixes it you got a bad MB or CPU and time for Dell to replace it.

At this point, I've tried swapping the NIC's, it doesn't seem to change the behavior.

I'm currently downloading the iso images for 4.4-ia64 just to see if that helps, but I'm not necessarily getting a warm and fuzzy that's going to do anything for me.

You're downloading the wrong image. You want x86_64. ia64 is for the Itanic.
