    initial v1  
    11The Acer Aspire X1200 is not a laptop.  Google it.  It's a skinny desktop unit (though maybe there is a laptop version of which I am not aware).  However, I will assume you are most likely correct in your assumption, since the system is a cheap Acer system and, therefore, likely to not have the most compliant BIOS updates, since systems nowadays are all throw-away technology.  2009-2012 is like... eons in computer terms.

    3 I'd rather find a system (motherboard), Haiku worked properly with, out of the box, rather than try to finagle a "work-around" for the X1200.  Should I stick to basically building a system from scratch, rather than buying an OEM system from Best Buy or elsewhere?
