Thanks for the acpidump. >From the FADT, there are some serious issues with this machine. It appears to be a Compaq, maybe model number LX38. We've recently improved the FADT error checking, here's what I get: ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0626): 32/64X length mismatch in Pm1aEventBlock: 32/16 [20081204] ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0626): 32/64X length mismatch in Gpe0Block: 128/32 [20081204] ACPI Error (tbfadt-0663): 32/64X address mismatch in Gpe0Block: 0000F820/000000000001F028, using 64X [20081204] ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0498): Invalid length for Pm1aEventBlock: 16, using default 32 [20081204] Also, for \_SB_.PCI0._OSC: >[ 0.304598] ACPI Error (dsfield-0139): [CAPD] Namespace lookup failure, >AE_ALREADY_EXISTS Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized) { Subtract (Arg2, 0x01, Local0) Name (CAPB, Buffer (Multiply (Arg2, 0x04)) {}) Store (Arg3, CAPB) Store (One, Local1) CreateDWordField (CAPB, Zero, CAPF) While (Local0) { CreateDWordField (CAPB, Local1, CAPD) CAPD is being created within a loop. On the second iteration it fails. Here's the FADT issues with the corresponding lines from the disassembled FADT: ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0626): 32/64X length mismatch in Pm1aEventBlock: 32/16 [20081204] 32: [058h 088 1] PM1 Event Block Length : 04 64: [094h 148 12] PM1A Event Block : <Generic Address Structure> [094h 148 1] Space ID : 01 (SystemIO) [095h 149 1] Bit Width : 10 [096h 150 1] Bit Offset : 00 [097h 151 1] Access Width : 00 Bit Width above should be 0x20 ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0626): 32/64X length mismatch in Gpe0Block: 128/32 [20081204] 32: [05Ch 092 1] GPE0 Block Length : 10 64: [0DCh 220 12] GPE0 Block : <Generic Address Structure> [0DCh 220 1] Space ID : 01 (SystemIO) [0DDh 221 1] Bit Width : 20 [0DEh 222 1] Bit Offset : 00 [0DFh 223 1] Access Width : 00 [0E0h 224 8] Address : 000000000001F028 I can't tell which one is correct. ACPI Error (tbfadt-0663): 32/64X address mismatch in Gpe0Block: 0000F820/000000000001F028, using 64X [20081204] 32: [050h 080 4] GPE0 Block Address : 0000F820 64: [0DCh 220 12] GPE0 Block : <Generic Address Structure> [0DCh 220 1] Space ID : 01 (SystemIO) [0DDh 221 1] Bit Width : 20 [0DEh 222 1] Bit Offset : 00 [0DFh 223 1] Access Width : 00 [0E0h 224 8] Address : 000000000001F028 Again, can't tell which one is correct. ACPI Warning (tbfadt-0498): Invalid length for Pm1aEventBlock: 16, using default 32 [20081204] This is actually repairing the problem found in the first warning above. 2 questions: 1) Do GPEs and events work on this machine? 2) Does Windows run properly on this machine?
