Question : Problem: ACPI error
|
|
I get the following error when trying to install Windows 2003 on a system with an iBase MB820 motherboard:
"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact your system vendor for an updated BIOS. If you are unable to obtain an updated BIOS or the latest BIOS supplied by your vendor is not ACPI compliant, you can turn off ACPI mode during textmode setup. To do this, press the F7 key when you are prompted to install storage drivers. The system will not notify you that the F7 key was pressed - it will silently disable ACPI and allow you to continue your installation.
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x000000A5 (0x00000003, 0x86988018, 0xC0140001, 0x494E495F)"
Can anyone advise where I can find a BIOS update for this motherboard.
I have tried the vendor web site.
