Default Dell/Intel based NIC Teaming intermittent issue

Hi, I just configured an Intel/dell based NIC Teaming on a dell server running windows 2000 advanced server, but network connectivity seems to be intermittent I mean sometimes is up and suddenly comes down and then comes up again... (weirdo... and I can't fugure out how to troubleshoot that)

Config details:
 - Server: Dell PowerEdge 4400
 - Switch: Dell PowerConnect 5324 (out of the box config)
 - Two of these: NIC: Intel PRO1000 MT Dual Port Server Adapter
 - One of this: Intel PRO1000 MT PCI Gigabit Server Adapter
   * Total: 5 NIC's (5 GB bandwidth)
 - TEAM#0: Intel ProSet sofware, Maximun Bandwith Mode with Jumbo Frames enabled and LACP Dynamic Aggregation Algorithm.

Note: All cables are virtually and phisically tested.

thanks in advance on any suggestions or advicing...

Aldo
