All,
I've got an HP Pavilion a1767c with Vista Home Premium on it. I can't get it to boot any way. Tried into Safe mode, Last known, with Vista DVD disk. All modes just go right back to the beginning and start over. I think its flashing a blue screen in there but the only one I can actually get it to stop and see what the blue screen actually says is when I try to boot with the DVD and then it gives me the message that the BIOS is not ACPI compliant. I can download an updated bios from HP, but its an exe file and assumes I can get to a place to where I can actually run it. The MOBO is an ASUS P5LP-LE with Phoenix Award BIOS version 5.09. Any ideas on how to get this thing updated ? Thanks.
