Here are Step By Step instructions on how to do what SOUNDTECH has found to fix the problem:

1) Open device manager by Right clicking on the My Computer Icon on your Desktop.

2) Left Click on Properties

3) Click the Hardware Tab. Click the Device Manager Button.

4) Click the + beside Computer

5) Right click the entry that (most likely) says ACPI Uniprocessor PC. Left click Update Driver. Select the Option that says Install from a List or Specific Location (Advanced).

6) Click Next

7) Select the Option that states Don't search. I will choose the driver to install.

8) Click Next

9) You now will see a list of what you can install. Select "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC".

10) Click Next. Then Click Finish.

11) Click OK to Restart the computer. When the First screen comes up, when the system is powered on, press the Delete Key to enter Setup, when stated. This will take you into the Bios of the Motherboard.

12) In the BIOS press the Down arrow key to go down to Advanced Bios Features. Press the Enter key to enter the Advanced Bios Features.

13) Use the Down arrow key to go down to the item that says APIC Mode: Enabled. This should be Highlighted with a Red color. Press the Enter Key on this. This will open a new box that shows Enabled or Disabled. Use the Up arrow key to change this to Disabled. Press the Enter key to select Disabled. Press the Escape (ESC) key ONCE. This will take you out of the Advanced Bios Features page. Press the F10 key on your Keyboard to Save and Exit.

When asked the question SAVE to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Press Y. Then Press the Enter Key. The system will now Reboot.

14) Once Windows is up, you should see the New Hardware Wizard come up and install some pieces of software. Once it finishes it will then tell you that you need to Reboot. Click Ok or Yes to Restart the system.

15) It will now Reboot the computer and you are finsihed.

Once you have Rebooted the system, please try Hoster again and let us know if this has fixed the problem for everyone.
