Dude, I'm having the exact problem in my thread, it's something to do with ACPI settings, and as far as I can tell I'm going to have to either upgrade my BIOS (which I can't find on the internet anywhere) or buy a new motherboad, it's not windows complaining about new hardware it does the same thing with linux it's just called a kernal panic. But this ACPI **** is starting to **** me off. I thought it was just my shitty $50 chaintech snf4-2... Guess it's more widespread.
