Solve : ACPI complaint?

1.	Solve : ACPI complaint?
Answer» I have installed a seagate 160GB HARD drive with XP from an old Gateway with a bad motherboard into my mom's HP XT858. I get a ACPI complaint. It tells me to turn off during text MODE set up, press7 when prompted to install storage drivers. I can't get any other screen to APPEAR or the ACPI complaint off. The HP XT858 has a 1 Hz PENTIUM processor, 516 ram, thought I would try to change the 60 GB hard drive with ME to maybe get a little more time from her old system. Thought the bigger hard drive would handle XP better. How do I proceed ? Steve With XP and later versions you cannot simply swap a drive from one machine to the NEXT and have it boot properly... This is by design. You can however try the following if you have an XP CD from MS with shiny holograms all over it: Repair Install of XP.
