Matthew,
You are right, of course, we're not doing something right
if a new machine needs this workaround.

Isn't that possible, however, that the BIOS of this new machine is based on an
older one that used to have this problem?

Maybe, but it doesn't matter. If it's a new machine it's presumably going to work fine on Vista, etc. so it doesn't make much sense that this machine should require the old ACPI code ordering.
