Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look into possible memory conflicts. There is only a single PCI-MXI-2 card.
Also, both the cards I have that are showing corrupted EEPROM are 1995 vintage. I also tried a 2004 card that I configured on a different system and it worked fine on my target system, though I am not brave enough to try configuring the new card on my target system. Someone at work mentioned there is a difference in the versions of ASICS that could be an issue.
And once the EEPROM is corrupted, it seems there is no way to clear it on any system.

Yes, you have it correct. And yes, the switches are set as described in the manual you referenced. I am running with NI-VXI 3.5.0 but have also used 3.3.0 on another system.
Memory usage appears clean. There is a shared interrupt, but I don't think that should be a problem, here's my system:

Alright, tried it with a different graphics card with none of the memory shared with the PCI-MXI - same results.
Another question: is it possible to corrupt the cards when setting the configuration so that it is impossible to clear them (other than sending them in for repair)?

Thanks for the response. The first document I am familiar with, the second is new to me - I'll go through it and see if it will help.
I am currently working with 3 PCI-MXI-2 cards - two of them show up as having corrupted EEPROM, the other works great.
Corrupted card #1 has the following numbering:
A1BA1B
ASSY: 182685C-01
PCB: 182687B-01 847578309 UL94V-0 (C)1995
Chip U8: 70236 1B.01 1796 H
Chip U12 (ASIC): MITE-AQ
Chip U24: 78235 3A-01 1796 H
Corrupted Card #2 has:
11CCFA9
ASSY 182685K-01
Chip U8: 70236 1F-01 4905 HO
Chip U12 (ASIC): MITE-BQ
Chip U24: 702353B -01 M V 2505
(c) 2004
Good Card:
11C29C1
ASSY 182685K-01
Chip U8: 70236 1F-01 4605 HO
Chip U12 (ASIC): MITE-BQ
Chip U24: 702353B -01 M V 1005

Again, I have two PC's I have been working with, both HP xw4400 Workstations. Fairly similarly configured but not exactly. One has seemingly corrupted two PCI-MXI-2 cards so far, the other PC has let me change configuration fine on the third card but can not change configuration on the other two cards. I have also tried a third PC, an older IBM, and can not change configuration on the two corrupted cards but can on the good card. I still do not dare to try changing configuration using the first PC.
