Check /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. Probably the old (fried) ethernet card is listed there (along with other stuff). Leave out everything except your PCI card (the MAC address is how you tell them appart). Worst case, delete the file (after saving a copy), and see if udev automagically solves everything by itself.
