You can also try the following:

Download the devcon utility form Microsoft (free) and do the following:

devcon sethwid @ROOT\ACPI_HAL\0000 := +acpiapic_mp !acpiapic_up !acpi_up
!e_isa_up

# if the current hal was e_isa_up (no acpi, up) do also the following:
devcon sethwid @ROOT\PCI_HAL\0000 := +acpiapic_mp !acpiapic_up !acpi_up
!e_isa_up

# anyhow do the following
devcon.exe update c:\windows\inf\hal.inf acpiapic_mp

Good luck...
