When ACPI.PSD is loaded (and it doesn't matter which switches is used) PCI config space gets destroyed for some devices - in my case my Wlan Intel 3945abg. This have been happening even in all 2.x versions too.

Since more and more users reports similar problems for other devices, I tried to compare, and it seems that this problem only happens for devices connected to PCI Express bus.

In my case it happens to 3945 device connected to PCI-e and the PCI-e root port.

Other users report the same problem happens to their Gigabit nics - when this is connected to PCI-e too.

It seems, there is some general problem with ACPI driver about PCI-e devices, as I have not seen any case where a normal PCI device gets its PCI config space destroyed by ACPI driver.

Plenty of logs uploaded during time - but I'd be happy to supply more, if needed (there are a few in Ticket #226, which shows some of them).

Reimplementing PCIWRITE is a nice tool for experts and hardcore users to test and workaround this problem; but we _really_ need to figure out, what goes wrong here, and fix that.

Yoda.

I've read the Tickets about VDM's not working. Doesn't seem like a satisfactory answer to me. 2.22 the VDM's work. 3.08 the VDM's don't. Need to use 3.08 to use the onboard HDA audio and Nvidia Lan - so what's the solution? If I invoke a VDM the system will hang completely within about 15 seconds. If I close the window before this, then the system will stay up. Only get a flashing cursor in the VDM.

I have a new quad core AMD Phenom 9550 with the ASUS M3A motherboard. I read that the ATI chipset is not supported by ACPI. Is there any hope there will be someday? The boot will not progress beyond trying to load resource.sys on either install (acpi enabled) or after install is psd=acpi.psd is included in config.sys.

Thanks, Jim
