Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet Dell 610 and Dell

I mean :
I have a dell R710 with four : bce: <Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 
1000Base-T (C0) card.
While running FreeBSD AMD64 7.2-RELEASE I sometimes got strange message from 
bce but main problem is that if I do a soft reboot (just typing reboot) I 
then have lots of message like : "if_bce.c Unable to write CTX memory" and 
then no more network acces.
To make it work again I don't have other solution that do a cold reboot 
(unplug power).
I saw other people speaking of this but never find solution.
Is there a way to make it work without changing network card?
