Yes, it was the latest BIOS for this board, but Intel put a new to the 
Internet these days. I updated the Bios, but no change at all.
There is only one ACPI-Relevant switch in the Bios, so I donÂt think 
that the Bios configuration is the problem. The only on ACPI-relevant 
option is:
"Resume from S5 by LAN". But I donÂt belive that this makes the problem 
(and I tryed both: on and off). There is no way to modify/reservate 
interrups in the Bios.

It looks like very buggy ACPI-tables in the Bios.
