Strange event message, please help interpret.

[avatar8481]

What does this system event error message mean when it's the event shown as the cause of a BSOD? My hardware setup is Athlon 1400, AMD761 chipset 512md PC2100 Ram, Geforce3 and a Soundblaster Live.

AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to read from an illegal IO port address (0xcfc), which lies in the 0xcf8 - 0xcff protected address range. This could lead to system instability. Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance.

Most of these errors require a bios update to fix it.
