BIOS NOT ACPI COMPLIANT error 0x000000A5
I purchased a new ASUS laptop with Win8. I wanted to replace it with Win7. I wiped, formatted and partitioned the HD. I changed the BIOS so it boots from the DVD. I put my 7 disc in and started. A message says it is loading files. In a minute or so I get the Blue Death Screen with the message: Problem detected, shut down to prevent possible damage. The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact vendor for updated version.
ASUS has been off line for several days so no help there. Anywhere else I can get a updated BIOS? If that is the problem. Is there a thread somewhere this was solved?
One other thing, got the same results when I tried to install XP. Thanks
