Another update.
The idle=poll option was more of a power hog than I realized. I actually
ended up going back to nolapic a few days after I used it. After the
electricity ran out much, MUCH faster than it should have.
The most recent thing I looked into is the max cstate options.
Been experimenting some more. I saw the post at:

The op there also was complaining about not booting without nolapic. But
that with nolacpic only 1 core works.

So done some more digging into the problem. I found the page at:

I decided to try them all and see the effects. It went like this:
* acpi=off - Works, but looks terrible, trackpad doesnt work, keyboard spams
keys
Sorry for the delay. My laptop was away for a while getting repaired.
Apparently water magically appeared on the GPUs and the mobo. Allowing
the repair to cost me instead of the manufacturer. Lovely :-/
Thanks for the replies. I appreciate all the help I can get. Fed up with
windows lol.
Anyway
