The problem is that the PC running Windows XP was attempting DHCP on power up thru the bridge, and for some reason this fails in the 8.1 code, but the good news is its fixed in STABLE/8. So, I would recommend going to the STABLE/8 e1000 code as a first step if you are having any problems with any of the 1G drivers.
