will it make a difference which one is used besides irq sharing and power management? will using either cause instability?

What motherboard are you using? I have a feeling you're a bp6 user if you're asking a question like this..

i'm asking for someone who has a epox mvp3g5, win2k first installed as a standard pc and he had no problems, then he updated his bios reinstalled win2k and it installed as a acpi pc. after that he started to have problems with drakan and 3dmark 2000, the screen goes dark and then brightens and it loops. directx sound diag also loops. he installed it as a standard pc fixed all his problems and is worried about any problems using it as a standard pc.
