Hi, Just been trying to give my old HP pavilion 6618 some more RAM, after replacing the old 64mb with another 256, already has 256 in the other slot, i was after 512 in total but will not start windows and message- BOIS is not ACPI compiant, also suggests pressing f7 during text mode set up(whatever that is?) to turn off ACPI, Any ideas? Cheers. |

There should be an option in the BIOS (maybe under power management). |

If the BIOS is not ACPI compliant, then you are unlikely to find ACPI options in the BIOS :D
Hit F5 at the 'press F2 to install...' prompt, and keep hitting it - you will get an option for various kernel images. Choose 'Standard PC', then continue with the installation. If it still doesn't work, use the '486' one. |
