Okay, I think I'm a little confused ...

Must I have ACPI in order to have "Advanced Power Management support" ?
In the "good" HDD/partition, there is no mention of ACPI under
"System devices" but there is an "Advanced Power Management support" item,
which is what I'm trying to replicate on the other HDD/partition

You have mis-quoted.



For ACPI to function correctly all hardware devices on the system must
be ACPI compliant including the mother board.

Their correct drivers must be correctly installed and the Windows

Software ACPI must be installed e.g the Advanced Power Management
Support as you post above.

If the option is there in the BIOS to enable/disable
ACPI it must be enabled.Many Modern systems either have it hidden and
set by default to,"On".

You may also need to re-install motherboard/mother board chip set
drivers pack/s.
As for talk of,"Partitions" you are now confusing me :/
