• Boot from Windows 7 disk. ERROR?
    8 replies, posted
I have been trying to boot from the windows 7 disk but each time it finishes saying "Windows installing" or something like that, a red pixel appears above the text, and then I get a blue screen error. "STOP: 0X000000A5 (0X0000000000001000,0X0000000000000000,0X00000000FFFFFFFF,0X0000000000000400) The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact your system vendor for an updated BIOS." I knew right away that this was bull, because my motherboard says the BIOS are ACPI compliant. I updated my BIOS anyway, and the problem persists. I have a Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P motherboard. Can anyone help me?
ACPI is a power option in the bios sometimes disabled, look for advanced power options and/or turn off coll 'n quiet
[QUOTE=JohnEdwards;18330830]ACPI is a power option in the bios sometimes disabled, look for advanced power options and/or turn off coll 'n quiet[/QUOTE] I turned Cool 'n Quiet off, but the error still occured. What should I do now? :/ There is also an option called "ACPI Suspend Type" and the options are- S1(POS) Set suspend type to Power On Suspend under ACPI OS S3(STR) Set suspend type to Suspend to RAM under ACPI OS Also, the Cool&Quiet option is called: AMD K8 Cool&Quiet Control if that helps at all :/ [editline]12:11AM[/editline] Can't anyone help me? Am I stuck with XP forever?
Well try both options in the ACPI. If that doesn't work then flash your bios to a later version.
It's Windows 7, what do you expect?
some times windows 7 needs a bois flash, for the advanced acpi feature
[QUOTE=JohnEdwards;18335258]some times windows 7 needs a bois flash, for the advanced acpi feature[/QUOTE] What does flash mean? Because I might have already done that. I downloaded the bios file MA77TUD3.F4 and updated my bios with that from a USB drive.
Reset all bios settings. Then restart once. Get into the BIOS and under power configuration, figure out the ACPI Part (I can for example chose my ACPI Version). Test different values there. Note: Cool'n'Quite has nothing to do with the problem and the ACPI Sleep State most probably nothing too.

I'm also getting a new error message now. Well.. Not really new, just different numbers than before. "STOP: 0X000000A5 (0X0000000000001000,0X0000000000000000,0X00000000FFFFFFFF,0X0000000000000400) The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact your system vendor for an updated BIOS." (updated the first post with this error message) EDIT: when it asks me to press any key to boot from disk, it even says ACPI above in that list of code or whatever.
