Radimus Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 BTW2, the older machines... If you install XP normally and look in the device manager, expand COMPUTER; what kind of PC is displayed?the evo's should by default show some type of ACPI, the newest PCs I have show"Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC"The older ones may show "Standard PC"you can push a "standard PC" on to newer machines, but you will lose lots of the benefits of the newer BIOS and MBs.If that is the case, you would be best off by making 2 images... and wait for the day the old ones die off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rorton Posted January 4, 2005 Author Share Posted January 4, 2005 i've just booted one of the HP Vectra's and it also has an ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC) so looks to be OK?Gonna try and remove as much hardware as i can from my EVO based build, and apply it to an HP vectra, and see what happens (gotta be worth a laugh!)
