Motherboard has both PATA and SATA so if the PATA port has no devices attached it would be best to disable it completely.
If that option is no go then swap the ethernet card into a different slot, I recommend consulting the ASUS manual for the MB, the section labeled "Interrupt assignments" will help to avoid conflicts.

I am unable to find a way to disable PATA through BIOS. Apparently there is no option in ASUS BIOS to assign IRQs. I checked ASUS manual it says

When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support "Shared IRQ" or that the card do not need IRQ assignments. Otherwise, conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups, making the system unstable and the card inoperable.
Thanks for this suggestion though I will try it later.
For the moment I have changed the PCI slot and now ethPCI is not shared. I am testing it to see if it solves the problem.
In any case I will verify your suggestion also.
If you don't have any IDE HDDs blacklist 'pata_via'.
OK it seems the problem is elsewhere.
I changed the PCI slot as I mentioned in my last post, but now I am getting error on IRQ #19 which is assigned only to Intel pro 1000 GigE ethernet card i.e. ethPCI
What can be the cause of Disabling IRQ #19 or any number ? Any further advice ?

What he meant its that most likely and it looks like you are... You are running on the default "Huge Kernel" of slackware.... There is a readme inside the cd explaining why this is not recommended.... What they recommend is to switch your kernel to generic.... And it "might help" with your problem.... Its done as follow....

I don't think that ethPCI is that card, that card uses the e1000 module. Still to be sure post the output of 'lscpi -k'
Well, you see, ethPCI is not on there, which is strange, because I don't know what it is for. I would try blacklisting it and seeing what happens.
Before I do that I want to share this info.
I created ethPCI alias in udev with the mac of the card so maybe this is why it is not appearing in output of lspci -k ... but I am not sure:
Code:

A static IP is configured with ethPCI to communicate with Camera.

# IFNAME[interface] to the interface's name. If IFNAME[interface] is unset
# or empty, it is assumed you're configuring eth<interface>.
# Several other parameters are available, the end of this file contains a
