What I found helped out was going into my BIOS settings at boot-up time with F11. Then going into the Power tab and disabling ACPI. Then I still get about 10 errors like the one above when I startup, but at least its not the constant log filling that was happening before. I found some documentation listing the BIOS in the SR1700 series of Compaqs as broken.
