Cannot detect Dual Intel 82574L (on-board) on CentOS 6.0 64bits

I have at work 5 of these [url=http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/5016/SYS-5016T-MTF.cfm]Supermicro SuperServer 5016T-MTFB[/url] with Supermicro X8STI-F motherboards with two Intel 82574L Gigabit Ethernet adapters (on-board), BUT CAN'T DETECT any of the NETWORK ADAPTERS (on any of the servers).

Im currently trying out CentOS 6 x64, but could't detect it either with CentOS 5.6 32/64bits.

First I tried kmod e1000/e1000e driver from [url=http://elrepo.org/tiki/Packages]elrepo.org repository[/url].

I've tried compiling the driver from source downloaded from Intel website then loading it with modprobe, but no luck also, I can only "see" interface lo.

(To rule out any malfunction, I installed Windows 7 on one of the servers and everything worked properly.)

Can anyone who has solved this problem help me out with this?

Im about to go nuts 'cause i've tried almos everything i could remember!
