Try turning off or changing the screensaver try using a non animated one

 

Also go into System Preferences and click Energy Saver and adjust all the settings to never

 

ACPI is not working 100% as it was writen for Mac laptops

 

Also when you close the lid on your laptop it will crash there is a workaround for this using a program called Sleepless 2.1
