Absolutely. I have acpi=off as well - it was totally
unstable before
that; it was one of the first things I changed. I would disable acpi in
the bios but I need it for windows to run... and I only need windows for
sibelius. But now that I know you can run score in dosemu, it might be
time to bite the bullet - btw did anyone who got it to work try
printing a Score score from dosemu?
All you need for Windows to boot w/o ACPI is the "other" kernel. It's not
too hard to change over (you just add some flags to your boot.ini file - and
if you're paranoid, you can just make another entry for it so you have one
for ACPI and one without ACPI).
