Open control panel, system, then click on the device manager tab, then
click the '+' next to system devices, if you see a reference to ACPI
then you are using it, if you don't then you are not.

It can be bugger, I'd wait and see what other advice turns up first
before I handed cash over.

If you are still not having any joy, then I can give you some info on
how to get rid of ACPI under windows 98, There are 2 methods, one works,
but requires a flat reinstall and the other is a registry setting that
is easy to do, but hasn't worked for me yet!
