How to uninstall ACPI in XP?
I need to uninstall ACPI in Windows XP. I have a problem where my computer locks all the time, but I can't nail down what it is. I know that if I remove my sound card everything is fine, but I have the latest drivers for everything, all the critical updates, etc. Any other sugestions are welcome.

Isn't ACPI Windows XP power management of some kind? check power settings, but that surely isn't your stability problem :(

Some people try to remove it because Sandra indicates it can slow performance. I've never bothered myself. Seems like something I wouldn't want to get rid altogether.
