quiet acpi=off noapic fix from ATI Support

Thanks ATI for sending the ISO for this fix, but it did nothing better then the original 889 recovery CD (which is to just stop with errors) but it does give better error messages. Perhaps u can tell something from this:

OHCI 1394 FAILED TO ALLOCATE SHARED INTERUPT 0

USB.UHCI.C: FOUND UHCI DEVICE WITH NO IRQ ASSIGNED. check bios/pci 00:id7 setup!

usb-uhci.c: enxio 800000300, flags 0, urb f760aa0, burb f760a20

this is a better error message then produced by the previous 5 releases, but i still don't understand it...thanks for your help.

System:
Sony TR3 w/ Home XP Sp2
Adaptec 7 port USB 2.0 hub
Sony External DVD Burner
Various External USB 2 Harddrives

 

Hello herojig,

Could you please let me know your Acronis Request # or e-mail address that you used to send a letter to Acronis Support Team?

We also recommend you to update your copy of Acronis True Image 8.0 to the 903 build. In order to get access to updates you should register account on our site (or just log in if you have already created it) and then register your copy of the product. After that create a new bootable CD and see whether the problem persists.

Thank you.

thanks irina, i just downloaded 889 a few days ago so i thought i had the latest. my email is herojig at wlink.com.np and i think i already registered but i'll check again...

Well, 903 is better, but i also did this: i put all hard drives on one usb hub (adaptec) and put everything else but the mouse on the other hub (chinese), and then connected the hubs on different usb ports on the laptop. When i want to use the boot CD, I then disconnect the chinese hub, and all is well-- no error messages. with the chinese hub connected i still get a usb error message and no recovery manager. But this is a good enough workaround for me...maybe i'll get another adaptec hub and replace the other...

but, there is a drive letter/partition letter problem...i'll post in the other thread....

THANKS!!!

 

Dear Irina,
re: incident below, still no resolution after about 1 month of correspondence with support. I am a patient soul, and don't mind testing stuff out, but any way to at least get faster turnaround for each email to them, so it's not over one week between each reply?
thanks
Nick



dear sirs,
no response this past week; it has been almost one month of working on this
issue.
any new response, or items to try?
thaks
Nick

Hello aoz,

I have found your letter, our Development Team is still working on your problem and we will highly appreciate if you wait for a few days more to let us complete the investigation. We are sorry for such a delay caused by our Developement Team being involved in the process.

Thank you.
