June 14, 20206 yr I have to install Windows 98 SE via setup /p i and it's a pain considering I have to turn ACPI off in the bios. Would be nice if there was a kernel patch for 98se that would fix ACPI. Then I could go back and forth between XP and 98se without futzing with ACPI in the bios.
June 14, 20206 yr Check in BIOS setup if you have the option of changing ACPI version without turning it off. Or find how to use this: That's way beyond me, though...
June 17, 20206 yr Huh? You don't have to change ACPI settings in BIOS to make setup /p i work correctly. It will simply not use ACPI at all. I don't have options to turn off ACPI on my ASRock H110M-DVS R3.0 motherboard BIOS yet Windows 98 SE installs just fine
