AndrewH Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Okay, well i got 10.4.5 installed great, with no errors completely smooth install. But when I try to boot into it natively, I get an error ACPI Driver Not Found I've looked around on here, doesn't seem to have a solution i'm guessing, I've tried on the irc channel.. doesn't seem to be a problem that is fixable, so am I stuck using mac os x through vmware until there is a fix? Also.. tried platform=x86pc no luck, tried all the flags, no luck. Also tried to install 10.4.3, doesn't work.. System Specs: AMD 64 3200+ Venice Core 1024 Dual Channel DDR400 ECS K8T890-A (1.0A) Geforce 4 Ti4200 128mb Any help would be greatly appreciated, but if it's like it's looking i'm just s.o.l Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/12482-acpi-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearfilm Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Hey, I am in the same boat with an Hp a705 that ran 10.4.1 just fine and since 10.4.3 does not go anywhere natively - only thru vmware as you are able to. I thought I would reply and say - sorry, no dice. This seems to only afffect the minority of users and those of us with this problem are not smart enough figure out a solution. There are lots of posts on this and I will assume you have tried all the bios options as well, but as I recall there is somethig with the AMD chips that make this not viable. Sorry for th ebad news, I just can not keep letting posts like these go unanswered.

BMC6053 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 *scratches head* I've installed 10.4.6 before & it worked and my old hdd went bad. Now installing it (with JaS CD) and it produces that same very error - works in VM but not native boot. The driver is actualy present and platform=X86PC yealds no results. I'll keep working at it and maybe I'll come up with a solution other than updating the bios (mine is updated) or disabling USB (my usb cannot be disabled).
