I have a laptop computer with name FUJITSU pentium 3 from Japan. I have got the laptop with windows XP installed however some operating system files were corrupted and i tried to re-install the Operating system Windows XP service pack-2. Although it starts to install it but it failes in drivers installation process and says "BIOS is not ACPI" complaint. Please how can i install the Windows Xp normally.

thanks for your kind cooperation.

Press F5 during the beginning of the install and it will give you a menu to choose a non-ACPI HAL. Either that or update the BIOS on the laptop to support ACPI.
