    OK sorry..... but as an after thought.... would it not be possible to install XP where ACPI will be installed with windows XP..... then do a windows 7 upgrade...
    if my theory is correct then you should be able to install fully (w/o formatting) windows 7 just leaving to delete window.old
    Im not sure this would work but the theory is correct

    Have you tried the method of copying the disc contents to desktop and running from there?

    That ain't going to work windows 7 checks the ACPI, it's 1.0 not compatible with 7 so it will always give a BSOD the only way is to find a modded/upgraded bios
