    Hello guys,

    So one of my friends gave me this asus f5vl notebook. I was trying to intall windows XP & 7 with no luck. The only way i am able to make the XP install is to press F5 and choose "Standart PC with C-Step i486" which is non-ACPI. So with this option i'm unable to install ATK drivers because there is no device for such driver. I tryed BIOS update, but no luck either.
    Otherwise XP installation hangs at "Installing Drivers" & Win7 installation - at "Starting Windows". Any ideas?
