Comment (by Luposian):

 The 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.

 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?
