Ive recently installed fedora core 1 onto an old desktop machine. It has an Abit BP6 motherboard with 2 533 celeron cpu's in it. According to the BIOS and manual, it is ACPI enabled, but when i enable it in grub.conf i get an error saying my bios is to old and i should use acpi=force Im just wondering what is actually wrong with my acpi bios? I was using power management on windows on this machine with no problems at all. Is it actually safe to enable acpi with the force option? Simon
