Source: ACPI
Catagory: None
Event ID: 4
Description: AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attemting to read from an illegal IO port address
(0x71) which lies in the 0x70-0x71 protected address range.
Everything I researched and read on this error,, said I needed to update my BIOS.
And believe me a lot of people are getting this error,which is a shame because they
are all Flashing Their Bios and may not even need to.
Anyway I sent this error to PerfectDisk and they replyed and ask one question:Do
you have StyleXP installed on this machine?" MY reply was YES I DO. I was waiting
for there reply and desided to uninstall StyleXP and give the Offline Defrag a shot,,and
guess what? YEP,,, it worked like a charm. Can you believe this,,I reformated and
did a clean install{Which is OK cause it was needed anyway" but I was about to start
looking for a BIOS Flash Update. Now see how a little program can screw everything
up. Man oh man
