ACPI error messages

I've a compaq armada 1750 which I've way upgraded (processor, ram, hard drive). XP autodetects the PC as ACPI (the minimum one, not ACPI Uniprocessor with extended interrupts)

It seems to also has a 'dysfunctional' ACPI bios implementation. Most of the Linux-posts on the matter, recommend running the machine as APM.

I tried to do the same with windows (which also gets rid of these eventlog errors, however benign), but there is no APM option in power managment to turn on when using the Standard PC HAL (forcing with F5 during setup). APMSTAT returns 'This is an ACPI machine. APM is NOT applicable.'

Any ideas?
