Hi,

Recently i noticed that windows event viewer shows this error:


"AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to create an illegal memory OpRegion, starting at address 0x0, with a length of 0x1000. This region lies in the Operating system's protected memory address range (0x0 - 0x9f800). This could lead to system instability. Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance."


I start getting this message every 10-15 minutes while playing 3D games like Left 4 dead. My system hangs or restarts from time to time (while idle or is booting). I have tested my pc with prime95, furmark, memtest, other burn-in applications..... No crashes, everything looks stable. Any ideas? Thanks.

Well i googled a bit and came up with this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330054 It says that this error is by design and BIOS update should solve this. It helped me i think cause I am not seeing this error any more, lets hope this will work in the future.
