Description

Ticket added by Roderick Klein.

There are no logs attached to this ticket because its machine in depended this bug.

In eCS 2.0 RC5 there will be a patched resource.sys. This will make it look for previous.acp. Since it does not find it will do a full hardware detect. I did this because with ACPI there is a bigger chance for IRQ's and other hardware resources to change. Next to that never resource.sys can read a corrupted previous.dat (there have been a few isolated cases on HPFS where this happened). Previous.dat gets written by a DLL loaded when the WPS gets loaded.

I have not seen this before with ACPI but with ACPI not loaded on my T60 the output of PCIBUS.SNP is included (see attached files) with ACPI loaded this information is not in there. Something is going wrong because of ACPI.PSD.

Whats the cause of this ?
