Device Manager does not permit the change from a Non-ACPI HAL to an ACPI HAL.

Anyway, when I read this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299340/ it didn't seem as if hacking the HAL was such a good idea...
As far as I'm concerned, what I did was only uninstall and then re-install what was there before (I assume) - I was just hoping that it would do some system discovery stuff on installation and that maybe it would correctly detect the ACPI/APM options this time. Seems I was right, in part, maybe. Certainly the Device Manager is reporting the same as before. |
Hmm, sure I changed it from Standard PC to the ACPI one before...
I'll have a read of the KB articles when I've not got to be up early...
