Help!, I have an Intel motherboard system, (D815EEA, pentium III,
800Mhz) that has been running Windows 2000 professional for the last
couple years and today while swapping out a second drive, it suddenly
gives me this blue screen and says:

The ACPI BIOS in the system is not fully compliant with the ACPI
specification. Pleace read the README.TXT for possible workarounds. You

can alse contact your system's manufacture fot an updated BIOS, or
visit
http://www.hardware-update.com to see id a new BIOS us available.
The BIOS in thios system in not fully ACPO compliant. Please contact
your
system vendor or visite http://www.hardware-update.com for an updated
BIOS.
If you are unable to obtain an updated BIOS or the lastest BIOS
supplied by
your vendor is not ACPI compliant, you can turn off ACPI mode during
text
mode setup. To do this, simply press F7 key when toy are prompted to
install
storage drivers. Tha sustem will not notify you that the F7 was pressed
- it
will silently disable ACPI and allliw you to continue.

Why is this happening now and what do I do to bypass it? If I can't get
to my desktop, I can't update my Bios (why I need to I don't know).
How do I make this nightmare go away??
