    I have an Asus F3JP that came with XP Pro. I put Vista Beta 2 on it, and had a few issues so went back to XP. I've loaded Vista Business x64 on it now. Everything is working except for one big problem. All the hotkeys and OSD, Wireless Console, Bluetooth, etc. all work, but there is a problem, I think, with the ACPI. When I'm using the system on AC power and unplug it, it goes to battery mode. When I'm using it (in Windows) on battery and plug it in, the system freezes. I've downloaded all the vista ATK drivers and stuff from the other thread. All the devices are installed with correct drivers, at least as far as I can tell. Vista recognized and installed all of them after I downloaded the extras and updated drivers from the other thread.

    I know it's not a hardware problems, because it only does it in Vista. I can plug in my other drive and boot to xp and it works.
