Is there a workaround for the "Your BIOS is not ACPI Compliant" BSOD during install?

I'm running the most recent BIOS for my notebook and I'm not sure why
Vista is complaining since XP, OS X, and SUSE all work just fine
(ACPI).

I know under XP you can hold down a key to force the install not to
install the ACPI HAL but that doesn't seem to work with Vista.
