USB 2.0 PCI Card and BIOS/SMM bug

[Lukast]

Hello, i'm a quite new Linux user and i have a problem with my PCI Card for USB2.0

My Computer specs:
Motherboard: MSI 745 Ultra (has USB 1.1 only)
Processor: Athlon XP 1800+
RAM: 768 MB
SoundBlaster Live
Graphics: ATI Radeon 9000
(quite old comp)

Could you help me? I have bought new PCI Card with 5 USB slots (usb 2.0) and when the computer
boots, it shows some errors:

I have copied some lines from messages
cat /var/log/messages

Sometimes it works, sometimes is doesn't. It is somehow random. Actually now it just first time
it has started.

I have tried to mount USB Flash disk when it worked, but after few seconds, the device
again doesn't work.
