Question ACPI mode, cannot roll back.

I have a HP G60 Notebook PC with an AMD Turion Dual-Core RM-70 2.00GHZ processor, recently, I have updated my driver from ACPI x86-Based PC, and now it says Advanced Configuration and Power Interface, which is severely slower, so when I went back to press roll back, it's grayed out, and now I'm stuck with a unicore system that doesn't let me do much gaming.
I have also tried re-updating my driver back to an ACPI x86-Based PC, however, it's gone from the options as well.

Default ACPI mode, cannot roll back.

Try forcing Windows to redetect the HAL:

start -- run -- msconfig -- boot tab -- "advanced options" button --
detect HAL checkbox

Reboot the machine - might solve your problem.
