Bios in this system is not fully ACPI compliant....

I have Toshiba Satellite M35X-S109. with p sp3 installed.
When the notebook starts, a blue screen telling : The bios in this system is not fully ACPI compliant....
How can I fix that?
Thank you

 

It's telling you to update BIOS and be Very careful, follow all instructions to the letter. Do not have any anti programs or other programs open or running, stop them. BIOS can be a real headache if you go about it without doing your homework.

Not sure if that will help your error though, did not for some but worth a shot I think. Did you by any chance update with the wrong file prior? Or change anything?

 

Before you update the BIOS, look through the BIOS for an ACPI setting and when you find it, set it to the opposite of what it is; if it's enabled, disable it; if it's disabled, enable it. Also, find any power management or power saving settings and disable those too....

 

If it continues and you have to reload XP try:
F7 - To run Setup without Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)

"Three keys can be used when Setup is loading and when you are prompted to press the F6 function key to install third-party small computer system interface (SCSI) and host controller drivers:
• F5 - For computer type or hardware abstraction layer (HAL) selection
• F6 - To install third-party SCSI and host controller drivers
• F7 - To run Setup without Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) "

 

In the site you mentioned there is only an update from 2005 caled ACPI Flash BIOS version 1.90 for Satellite M35X (Intel video) (v1.90; 04-07-2005; 2.6M)

Will it make the trick?
In the bios I looked for any mention to ACPI, but I could not find any.
Thank you

 

Achkre, dlb and foogoo are advanced users and fix PCs daily - I'm not an advanced user. Think they're nicely correcting me and telling us that BIOS is a last resort because it can go bad an make your PC unusable.

Did you look at the power management settings as dlb suggested? Also, you did not answer my question re changed anything prior to this error.

 

Maybe got some bug!
Please, can I have this checked?
